[PATCH] app/test: use memcpy in ipsec test

[Morten Brørup]

How about:
*dst = ipv4_outer;

Don't know if it applies here.

Also here:
*dst = espt;

Also don't know if it applies here.

With or without suggested changes:

If you are curious too...
Does the compiler still get confused about AVX rte_memcpy (without this patch), if applying the rte_memcpy patch?
