After the recent update of CompilerIntrinsicsLib, our memset() is no
longer emitted as a weak symbol. On ARM, this may cause problems when
combining this library with another library that supplies memset() [e.g.,
CryptoPkg/IntrinsicLib], due to the fact that the object also supplies
the __aeabi_memXXX entry points, which can only be satisfied by this
object. So make our memset() weak again, to let the other implementation
take precedence.

This makes ArmVirtQemu build again for ARM with SECURE_BOOT_ENABLE=TRUE
