lib min_heap: avoid indirect function call by providing default swap
The non-inline min heap API can result in an indirect function call to the
custom swap function. This becomes particularly costly when
CONFIG_MITIGATION_RETPOLINE is enabled, as indirect function calls are
expensive in this case.
To address this, copy the code from lib/sort.c and provide a default
builtin swap implementation that performs element swaps based on the
element size. This change allows most users to avoid the overhead of
indirect function calls, improving efficiency.
