A method call on a value of unknown type (untyped JavaScript, `any`)
picked its builtin by comparing the method name with strcmp against each
candidate, in long ladders per receiver kind: a string method could test
dozens of names before it matched.
- The name is now looked up once per call in a generated hash table
(scr_dyn_methods.h, from scripts/gen-dyn-methods.mjs), and each ladder
compares the resulting id. The table verifies the name's bytes, so a
name is matched by its content, as before.
- The worker event methods compare the first character before strcmp.
- bench/dynamic-methods calls string, array, Map, Set, number and own
methods from untyped JavaScript.
