These are easily built off the standard C library functions memcpy
and memcmp. By marking these inline we stand a good chance of
the C compiler replacing the entire thing with tight machine code,
because many compilers will actually inline a memcmp or memcpy when
the 3rd argument (the size) is a constant value.

We should never have a noreturn style function in the library
itself, as such a function would prevent the calling application
from handling error conditions the way it wants.

This is a horribly simple test suite that makes it fairly easy to
put together some basic function level unit tests on the library.
Its patterned somewhat after the test suite in git.git, but also
after the "Check" test library.
