The __GI_* symbol aliases for __memcpy_generic are unnecessary since
they're never used.  Add them only for libc.so to avoid PLT.

	* sysdeps/aarch64/multiarch/memcpy_generic.S (__GI_memcpy):
	Define only for libc.so.

OK to commit.


i was thinking that some existing macro from
libc-symbols.h would be better, since those already
deal with the #ifdef SHARED (and other cases)

i think

hidden_ver (__memcpy_generic, memcpy)

happens to do the right thing, but it's probably
an abuse of that macro.. and it seems we already
do similar things in other asm files (which means
the libc-symbols.h macros are not that useful..).
