As much as 7x speedup on some programs, cuts all.bash time by 20%.

Change splicebefore function from O(n) to O(1).
The approach was suggested by Carl during the code's review
but apparently did not make it into the tree.
It makes a huge difference on huge programs.

Make twobitwalktype1 slightly faster by using & instead of %.
Really it needs to be cached; left a note to that effect.
(Not a complete fix, hence the ½.)

Eventually we will want to bypass DATA for everything,

The practice of storing reference connections for testing has worked
reasonably well, but the large blocks of literal data in the .go files
is ugly and updating the tests is a real problem because their number
has grown.

This CL changes the way that reference tests work. It's now possible to
automatically update the tests and the test data is now stored in
testdata/. This should make it easier to implement changes that affect
all connections, like implementing the renegotiation extension.

On the plus side, we don't need to change the bits when mallocing
pointerless objects.  On the other hand, we need to mark objects in the
free lists during GC.  But the free lists are small at GC time, so it
should be a net win.

Benchmark is within the noise. I had to run this a dozen times
each before & after (on wall power, without a browser running)
before I could get halfway consistent numbers, and even then
they jumped all over the place, with the new one sometimes
being better. But these are the best of a dozen each.

Slowdown is expected anyway, since I imagine channels are
optimized more.
