slice/ascii: Optimize `eq_ignore_ascii_case` with auto-vectorization
- Refactor the current functionality into a helper function
- Use `as_chunks` to encourage auto-vectorization in the optimized chunk processing function
- Add a codegen test checking for vectorization and no panicking
- Add benches for `eq_ignore_ascii_case`
---
The optimized function is initially only enabled for x86_64 which has `sse2` as part of its baseline, but none of the code is platform specific. Other platforms with SIMD instructions may also benefit from this implementation.
Performance improvements only manifest for slices of 16 bytes or longer, so the optimized path is gated behind a length check for greater than or equal to 16.
Benchmarks - Cases below 16 bytes are unaffected, cases above all show sizeable improvements.
