    gdbserver: i387_cache_to_xsave: fix copy dest of zmm registers

    On a machine with AVX512 support (AMD EPYC 9634), I see these failures:

        $ make check TESTS="gdb.arch/i386-avx512.exp"
RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board=native-gdbserver"
        ...
        FAIL: gdb.arch/i386-avx512.exp: check contents of zmm_data[16] after
writing ZMM regs
        FAIL: gdb.arch/i386-avx512.exp: check contents of zmm_data[17] after
writing ZMM regs
        FAIL: gdb.arch/i386-avx512.exp: check contents of zmm_data[18] after
writing ZMM regs
        ...

    The problem can be reduced to:

        (gdb) print $zmm16.v8_int64
        $1 = {0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0}
        (gdb) print $zmm16.v8_int64 = {11,22,33,44,55,66,77,88}
        $2 = {11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77, 88}
        (gdb) print $zmm16.v8_int64
        $3 = {11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77, 88}
        (gdb) step
        5               ++x;
        (gdb) print $zmm16.v8_int64
        $4 = {11, 22, 77, 88, 0, 0, 0, 0}

    Writing to the local regcache in GDB works fine, but the writeback to
    gdbserver (which happens when resuming / stepping) doesn't work (the
    code being stepped doesn't touch AVX registers, so we don't expect the
    value of zmm16 to change when stepping).

    The problem is on the gdbserver side, the zmmh and ymmh portions of the
    zmm register are not memcpied at the right place in the xsave buffer.  Fix
    that.  Note now how the two modified memcpy calls match the memcmp calls
    just above them.

    With this patch, gdb.arch/i386-avx512.exp passes completely for me.
