RFR: 8330185: Potential uncaught unsafe memory copy exception

Adding an `UnsafeCopyMemoryMark` in `generate_disjoint_copy_avx3_masked()` to protect against SIGBUS in `arraycopy_avx3_large()`.  I discovered this by code inspection, and the missing memory mark is inconsistent with all other generators.  I do not have a testcase to generate such an exception.  I think this may have been a copy/paste error by the original contributor as evidenced by the variable `ucme_exit_pc` having been set but never used.

I have not seen a VM crash that can be attributed to this, but adding the mark is the correct behavior for its prevention.
