scripts/coccinelle/misc/memcpy-assign.cocci: Replace memcpy with struct assignment

There are error-prone memcpy() that can be replaced by struct
assignment that are type-safe and much easier to read. This semantic
patch looks for memcpy() that can be replaced by struct assignment.

Inspired by patches sent by Ezequiel Garcia <elezegarcia@gmail.com>
