Improved Move implementation on ARM

This adds some small improvements to Move_pld and Move_blended.

1.) Overlapping memory is handled as "unusual" and the code is placed at
the end of the function for better icache/bpu performance
2.) Fused the overlap check into 3 instructions with a single jump
instead of 5 instructions with 2 jumps.
2.) Use ldmia/stmia with 2 registers instead of ldr/str for faster
copying.
3.) Some code cleanup
