We grow the backing store on append by 2x for small sizes and 1.25x
for large sizes. The threshold we use for picking the growth factor
used to depend on the old length, not the old capacity. That's kind of
unfortunate, because then doing append(s, 0, 0) and append(append(s,
0), 0) do different things. (If s has one more spot available, then
the former expression chooses its growth based on len(s) and the
latter on len(s)+1.) If we instead use the old capacity, we get more
consistent behavior. (Both expressions use len(s)+1 == cap(s) to
decide.)
