CPYPN, CPYMN, CPYEN -- A64

These instructions copy a requested number of bytes in memory from a source address to a destination address. The prologue, main, and epilogue instructions are expected to be run in succession and to appear consecutively in memory: CPYPN, then CPYMN, and then CPYEN.

CPYPN performs some preconditioning of the arguments suitable for using the CPYMN instruction, and copies an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED portion of the requested number of bytes. CPYMN copies a further IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED portion of the remaining bytes. CPYEN copies any final remaining bytes.

The architecture supports two algorithms for the memory copy: option A and option B. Which algorithm is used is IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED.

<Xn>	For the "Prologue" variant: is the 64-bit name of the general-purpose register that holds the number of bytes to be transferred and is updated by the instruction to encode the remaining size and destination, encoded in the "Rn" field.
	For the "Main" variant: is the 64-bit name of the general-purpose register that holds an encoding of the number of bytes to be transferred, encoded in the "Rn" field.
	For the "Epilogue" variant: is the 64-bit name of the general-purpose register that holds an encoding of the number of bytes to be transferred and is set to zero on completion of the instruction, encoded in the "Rn" field.
