[benchmarks/ffi] Add micro and macro benchmarks for dart:ffi Adds micro benchmarks to measure low level (1) C memory reads and writes from Dart and (2) calls from Dart into C. This CL also adds a macro benchmark to measure overall performance using BoringSSL to digest data. The shared libraries are precompiled for Linux and live in cipd packages. The benchmarks run on all hardware architectures (with the exception of Linux'es hardfp on Arm32: https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/36309).

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 has 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.

If you want to build Dart yourself, here is a guide to getting the source, preparing your machine to build the SDK, and building.

The easiest way to contribute to Dart is to file issues.
You can also contribute patches, as described in Contributing.
