Description:
Copy bytes from one location to another.

maxlength=sizeof dest)
| dest[] | An array into which the bytes from source are copied in. |
| const source[] | The source array. |
| index | The start index in bytes in the destination array where the data should be copied to. |
| numbytes | The number of bytes (not cells) to copy. |
| maxlength=sizeof dest | The maximum number of cells that fit in the destination buffer. |
