Make assorted performance improvements in snprintf.c.

In combination, these changes make our version of snprintf as fast
or faster than most platforms' native snprintf, except for cases
involving floating-point conversion (which we still delegate to
the native sprintf).  The speed penalty for a float conversion
is down to around 10% though, much better than before.

Notable changes:

* Rather than always parsing the format twice to see if it contains
instances of %n$, do the extra scan only if we actually find a $.
This obviously wins for non-localized formats, and even when there
is use of %n$, we can avoid scanning text before the first % twice.

* Use strchrnul() if available to find the next %, and emit the
literal text between % escapes as strings rather than char-by-char.

* Create a bespoke function (dopr_outchmulti) for the common case
of emitting N copies of the same character, in place of writing
loops around dopr_outch.

* Simplify construction of the format string for invocations of sprintf
for floats.

* Const-ify some internal functions, and avoid unnecessary use of
pass-by-reference arguments.
