cmd/compile: optimize make+copy pattern to avoid memclr

match:
 m = make([]T, x); copy(m, s)
for pointer free T and x==len(s) rewrite to:
 m = mallocgc(x*elemsize(T), nil, false); memmove(&m, &s, x*elemsize(T))
otherwise rewrite to:
 m = makeslicecopy([]T, x, s)

This avoids memclear and shading of pointers in the newly created slice
before the copy.

With this CL "s" is only be allowed to bev a variable and not a more
complex expression. This restriction could be lifted in future versions
of this optimization when it can be proven that "s" is not referencing "m".

Triggers 450 times during make.bash..
Reduces go binary size by ~8 kbyte.
