    CBFS: Use memmove instead of memcpy when loading a file from CBFS.
    
    It might be the case that a file is being loaded from a portion of CBFS which
    has already been loaded into a limitted bit of memory somewhere, and we want
    to load that file in place, effectively, so that it's original location in
    CBFS overlaps with its new location. That's only guaranteed to work if you use
    memmove instead of memcpy.
