Chris Tate db2cb5c99e Split readline input in one scan and copy ASCII strings into buffers whole
readline split redirected input byte by byte, twice per chunk (once to
find whether the chunk ends a line, once to split it). Before splitting
it copied each chunk out of its Buffer and into a scratch buffer, decoded
it into a new string, and copied the unfinished line and the whole chunk
into a joined buffer. Now:

- one scan per chunk: memchr for a CR once, then LF to LF with memchr
  when the chunk has none, and the LF, CR and CRLF split otherwise;
- the unfinished line joins only the first line of the chunk;
- an ASCII chunk with no partial UTF-8 sequence held from the previous
  one is split where it is, and a chunk that is not shared memory is
  read from its own storage. Lines are still copied into their strings
  before the first is delivered.

Buffer.from(string, 'latin1' | 'ascii') encoded character by character;
an ASCII prefix, all of an ASCII string, is now copied with memcpy.

Line events, their order and the CRLF delay are unchanged. Corpus 8344
covers lines joined across chunks, a line longer than a chunk, empty
lines, mixed line endings and UTF-8 split across chunks. The new
line-reader workload reads a 67 MB log through readline over a file
stream.
