sparc: M7 optimized memset/bzero

Support added to identify Sparc M7/T7/S7/M8/T8 processor capability.
Performance tests run on Sparc S7 using new code and old niagara4 code.

Optimizations for memset also apply to bzero as they share code.

For memset/bzero, performance comparison with niagara4 code:
For memset nonzero data,
  256-1023 bytes - 60-90% gain (in cache); 5% gain (out of cache)
  1K+ bytes - 80-260% gain (in cache); 40-80% gain (out of cache)
For memset zero data (and bzero),
  256-1023 bytes - 80-120% gain (in cache), 0% gain (out of cache)
  1024+ bytes - 2-4x gain (in cache), 10-35% gain (out of cache)

Tested in sparcv9-*-* and sparc64-*-* targets in both multi and
non-multi arch configurations.
