The overhead of str::push_char is high enough to cripple the performance
of these two functions. I've switched them to build the output in a
~[u8] and then convert to a string later. Since we know exactly the
bytes going into the vector, we can use the unsafe version to avoid the
is_utf8 check.
I could have riced it further with vec::raw::get, but it only added
~10MB/s so I didn't think it was worth it. ToHex is still ~30% slower
than FromHex, which is puzzling.
Before:
```
test base64::test::from_base64 ... bench: 1000 ns/iter (+/- 349) = 204 MB/s
test base64::test::to_base64 ... bench: 2390 ns/iter (+/- 1130) = 63 MB/s
...
test hex::tests::bench_from_hex ... bench: 884 ns/iter (+/- 220) = 341 MB/s
test hex::tests::bench_to_hex ... bench: 2453 ns/iter (+/- 919) = 61 MB/s
```
After:
```
test base64::test::from_base64 ... bench: 1271 ns/iter (+/- 600) = 160 MB/s
test base64::test::to_base64 ... bench: 759 ns/iter (+/- 286) = 198 MB/s
...
test hex::tests::bench_from_hex ... bench: 875 ns/iter (+/- 377) = 345 MB/s
test hex::tests::bench_to_hex ... bench: 593 ns/iter (+/- 240) = 254 MB/s
```
