Remove overly optimistic definition of strmov() as stpcpy().
mysql uses this macro with overlapping source and destination strings,
which is verboten per spec, and fails on some Red Hat platforms.
Deleting the definition is sufficient to make it fall back to a
byte-at-a-time copy loop, which should consistently give the
expected behavior.
Note: the particular case that prompted this patch is reported and fixed
at http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=48864. However, my faith in upstream's
ability to detect this type of error is low, and I also see little evidence
of any real performance gain from optimizing these calls. So I'm keeping
this patch.
