  Add "nonnull" function attribute to help the compiler detect a NULL
pointer being passed to a function not accepting NULL pointers as an
argument at build time.

Add "access" function attribute to tell the optimizer how a function
accesses its pointer arguments.

Add these attributes to the rte_memcpy() function, as the first in
hopefully many to come.

thanks for providing the non-gcc expansion to empty.
