tools/nolibc/string: export memset() and memmove()

"clang -Os" and "gcc -Ofast" without -ffreestanding may ignore memset()
and memmove(), hoping to provide their builtin equivalents, and finally
not find them. Thus we must export these functions for these rare cases.
Note that as they're set in their own sections, they will be eliminated
by the linker if not used. In addition, they do not prevent gcc from
identifying them and replacing them with the shorter "rep movsb" or
"rep stosb" when relevant.
