    builtins: Move the character difference into result instead of reassigning result [PR109086]
    
    expand_simple_binop() is allowed to allocate a new pseudo-register and
    return it, instead of forcing the result into the provided
    pseudo-register.  This can cause a problem when we expand the unrolled
    loop for __builtin_strcmp: the compiler always generates code for all n
    iterations of the loop, so "result" will be an alias of the
    pseudo-register allocated and used in the last iteration; but at runtime
    the loop can break early, causing this pseudo-register uninitialized.
    
    Emit a move instruction in the iteration to force the difference into
    one register which has been allocated before the loop, to avoid this
    issue.

            PR other/109086
            * builtins.cc (inline_string_cmp): Force the character
            difference into "result" pseudo-register, instead of reassign
            the pseudo-register.
