description

    
`(bytevector-copy! from to)` is equivalent to `(bytevector-copy-partial from 0 (bytevector-length) to 0)`.  I don't see any reason to believe that this case is so special that it needs its own name.

I suggest that we remove the existing `bytevector-copy!` from the small language, and rename `bytevector-copy-partial!` to `bytevector-copy!`, with the order of arguments `to at from start end`, the same order used in SRFI 43's `vector-copy!`.  Note that SRFI 43 will be part of the large language.

To be clear, this does not mean that `bytevector-copy!` does not exist any more; it's actually the name `bytevector-copy-partial!` that was removed.
