sfeed_plain: optimize utf8-decoding and column position calculation
Optimize for the common-case: assuming ASCII. The input is assumed to be valid UTF-8 input (output of sfeed). This saves 2 function calls for determining the width of a single ASCII character, which of course is 1. Ranges: < 32 are control-characters and are skipped. < 127 is typical ASCII and is 1 column wide. >= 127 is the normal path (control-character and multi-byte UTF-8). Tested on OpenBSD and Linux with various compilers (clang, gcc, pcc and tcc). On OpenBSD and Linux glibc much improvement. On Linux musl (almost) no change. In a common-case upto 40% performance improvement. In the worst-case negligible performance degration (<1%).
