Robert Griesemer aea44109cf strconv: replace small int string table with constant string
This reduces memory use yet still provides the significant
performance gain seen when using a fast path for small integers.

Improvement of this CL comparing to code without fast path:

name              old time/op  new time/op  delta
FormatIntSmall-8  35.6ns ± 1%   4.5ns ± 1%  -87.30%  (p=0.008 n=5+5)
AppendIntSmall-8  17.4ns ± 1%   9.4ns ± 3%  -45.70%  (p=0.008 n=5+5)

For comparison, here's the improvement before this CL to code without
fast path (1% better for FormatIntSmall):

name              old time/op  new time/op  delta
FormatIntSmall-8  35.6ns ± 1%   4.0ns ± 3%  -88.64%  (p=0.008 n=5+5)
AppendIntSmall-8  17.4ns ± 1%   8.2ns ± 1%  -52.80%  (p=0.008 n=5+5)

Thus, the code in this CL performs slower for small integers using fast
path then the prior version, but this is relative to an already very fast
version:

name              old time/op  new time/op  delta
FormatIntSmall-8  4.05ns ± 3%  4.52ns ± 1%  +11.81%  (p=0.008 n=5+5)
AppendIntSmall-8  8.21ns ± 1%  9.45ns ± 3%  +15.05%  (p=0.008 n=5+5)

Measured on 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7 running macOS Sierra 10.12.3.

Overall, it's still ~88% faster than without fast path for small integers,
so probably worth it as it removes 100 global string slices in favor of
a single string.
