Test behaviour of watchpoints triggered by libc's memset/memcpy/memmove.
These functions are frequently optimized with specialized instructions
that favor larger memory access operations, so make sure GDB behaves
correctly in their presence.

There's a separate watched variable for each function so that the testcase
can test whether GDB correctly identified the watchpoint that triggered.

Also, the watchpoint is 28 bytes away from the beginning of the buffer
being modified, so that large memory accesses (if present) are exercised.

NB: As with v1, please let me know if you think there are more interesting
tests regarding watchpoint and memory accesses that can be done.  I tried
to make it cover the interesting scenarios but the testcase is small, so
maybe I'm not very creative.

Changes in v2:
- Ensure watchpoints are aligned to 4 bytes.
- Add kfail for arm-linux.

For this test, on aarch64 I see full passes, but on 32-bit Arm I see
3 passes and 3 kfail's.

Is that the expected outcome?

Hello Luis,

Thanks for reviewing the patches!

Yes, the testcase uncovered a bug in in hardware watchpoints with 32-bit
Arm (the testcase fully passes when the testcase is modified to use
software watchpoints) so I opened PR breakpoints/31665 to track it.

I didn't have the chance to investigate the problem yet, but it's in my
TODO list.
