This is a follow-up to #15947. Now that Roslyn's ref reassignment feature is available, we can use that rather than the earlier workaround of passing
ByReference<T>throughMemmove's internal ABI.On x64, there's no difference in the codegen between using
ByReference<T>vs. ref reassignment. On x86, this change results in an approx. 15% decrease in codegen size for theMemmovemethod, and there is a commensurate increase in throughput in my brief testing. This is expected, as we knew during the original change that RyuJIT x86 doesn't quite optimize passingByReference<T>around as well as its x64 counterpart does.
