Daniel Martí c4078a1998 text/tabwriter: use a single defer per Write call
Lines with single cells prompt a flush. Unfortunately, a call to
Writer.Flush also means two defers, which is an expensive operation to
do if many lines consist of single cells.

This is common when formatting code with aligned comments. Most lines
aren't going to have any comments at all, so the performance hit is
going to be noticeable.

The Write method already has a "defer handlePanic" of its own, so we
don't need to worry about panics leaking out. The error will now mention
"Write" instead of "Flush" if a panic is encountered during that nested
flush, but arguably that's a good thing; the user called Write, not
Flush.

For the reset call, add a non-deferred call as part of flushNoDefers, as
that's still necessary. Otherwise, the exported Flush method still does
a "defer b.reset".

The current tabwriter benchmarks are unaffected, since they don't
contain many single-cell lines, and because lines are written one at a
time. For that reason, we add a benchmark which has both of these
characteristics.

name    old time/op    new time/op    delta
Code-8    2.72µs ± 0%    1.77µs ± 0%  -34.88%  (p=0.000 n=6+5)

name    old alloc/op   new alloc/op   delta
Code-8      648B ± 0%      648B ± 0%     ~     (all equal)

name    old allocs/op  new allocs/op  delta
Code-8      13.0 ± 0%      13.0 ± 0%     ~     (all equal)

Perhaps unsurprisingly, go/printer also gets a bit faster, as it too
buffers its output before writing it to tabwriter.

name     old time/op  new time/op  delta
Print-8  6.53ms ± 0%  6.39ms ± 0%  -2.22%  (p=0.008 n=5+5)
