encoding/json: remove alloc when encoding short byte slices

If the encoded bytes fit in the bootstrap array encodeState.scratch, use
that instead of allocating a new byte slice.

Also tweaked the Encoding vs Encoder heuristic to use the length of the
encoded bytes, not the length of the input bytes. Encoding is used for
allocations of up to 1024 bytes, as we measured 2048 to be the point
where it no longer provides a noticeable advantage.

Also added some benchmarks. Only the first case changes in behavior.
