Attempt to enable MemCpyOpt unconditionally in D104801 <https://reviews.llvm.org/D104801> uncovered the fact that
there are users that do not expect LLVM to materialize `memset` intrinsic.

While other passes can do that, too, MemCpyOpt triggers it more frequently and breaks sanitizers and
some downstream users.

For now introduce a flag to force-enable the flag and opt-in only CUDA
compilation with NVPTX back-end.
