bytes,strings: optimize Repeat

When generating long strings or slices with Repeat we
currently reuse intermediate states as a way to quickly
build exponentially longer results.

This works well as long as the intermediate states fit into
the processor D-cache. If they don't we start thrashing the
D-cache by reading in the whole intermediate state over and
over on each iteration.

Instead, once we reach a large enough intermediate state (that
allows the memcpy operation to perform at peak) we cap the
size of chunk of the state that is used as source for subsequent
appends. This ensures that this smaller source chunk is always
present in the D-cache, and the append operation does not need
to read the state contents from memory.

Currently the cap is set to 8KB, a number derived via
experimentation to yield the highest performance across a
a large range of result sizes. Slightly higher caps also
produced similar results: 8KB was chosen as the smallest one
in this performance plateau with the intention to minimize
D-cache pollution.

For result sizes larger than the fastest cache levels we get
significantly higher performance compared to the current
implementation:
