[dart2wasm] Optimize UTF8 decoder when decoding a native array
Intercept all `Utf8Decoder.convert` calls to check the input type and
call the right UTF8 decoder function.
This currently only optimizes `U8List` parsing, and only the fastest
path where the input is an ASCII string. Follow-up CLs will optimize JS
typed array parsing by calling browser's UTF8 decoder and the slow paths
of non-ASCII and malformed buffers.
Results from an internal benchmark extracted from a real use case:
Before:
Parse(RunTime): 330,500 us.
After:
Parse(RunTime): 90,310 us. (-72%)
dart2js -O4 results of the same benchmark:
Parse(RunTime): 234,250 us.

Dart is:
Optimized for UI: Develop with a programming language specialized around the needs of user interface creation.
Productive: Make changes iteratively: use hot reload to see the result instantly in your running app.
Fast on all platforms: Compile to ARM & x64 machine code for mobile, desktop, and backend. Or compile to JavaScript for the web.
Dart's flexible compiler technology lets you run Dart code in different ways, depending on your target platform and goals:
Dart Native: For programs targeting devices (mobile, desktop, server, and more), Dart Native includes both a Dart VM with JIT (just-in-time) compilation and an AOT (ahead-of-time) compiler for producing machine code.
Dart Web: For programs targeting the web, Dart Web includes both a development time compiler (dartdevc) and a production time compiler (dart2js).
Dart is free and open source.
