    x86: Add bounds `x86_non_temporal_threshold`
    
    The lower-bound (16448) and upper-bound (SIZE_MAX / 16) are assumed
    by memmove-vec-unaligned-erms.
    
    The lower-bound is needed because memmove-vec-unaligned-erms unrolls
    the loop aggressively in the L(large_memset_4x) case.
    
    The upper-bound is needed because memmove-vec-unaligned-erms
    right-shifts the value of `x86_non_temporal_threshold` by
    LOG_4X_MEMCPY_THRESH (4) which without a bound may overflow.
    
    The lack of lower-bound can be a correctness issue. The lack of
    upper-bound cannot.
    
    (cherry picked from commit b446822b6ae4e8149902a78cdd4a886634ad6321)
