  [GH #837] Honor encoding in imcc optimizer

Context registers unfortunately do not store type information,
just the values. We would need at least type 'U" here.
So recreate an proper const'ed encoding string from the register
value.

  [GH #837] Add benchmark to test encoding slowdown

stress_stringsu.pir tests encoding via sprintf and concat.
The fixed version is only a bit slower then the old broken version.
13.666s (broken) vs 13.506s (fixed) vs 3.022s (without encoding).

So fixing the encoding representation as STRING* in SREG and consts 'U'
is a worthwile goal.

  [GH #837] New comparison benchmark against stress_stringsu.pir

Bad news:
There is almost no measurable speed advantage from ascii strings to encoded strings.
With the fix and without the fix, as sprintf handling slows down the test 4x times.

So converting a SREG and const to encoded STRING* will not gain much performance.

  In ByteBuffer.set_string_native make sure to use an unsigned char* instead of a regular char* to make g++ happy. Also, remove a superfluous GET_ATTR and const a local variable to make the optimizer slightly happier. Fixes #840. dukeleto++ for reporting the issue, kid51++ for alerting me about it.
