pure-serve no longer copies a JSON body's strings into the message's
payload. The ingress is the prefix, a table of each field's start and
size, and the body as it came; the connection thread scans the body
once, puts numbers into the prefix and records where each string is.
Only a string with escapes is unescaped, over itself (it never grows).
A group of fields comes as an object inside the body and, for a fixed
field, as its path in the query (?to.zip=7). A group where a field
belongs, a value where a group does, an array or true/false/null is
json_type; an unknown member, inside a group too, json_field.
The string scan and UTF-8 checks now pass over eight bytes at a time
while none needs a look (pure_utf8_step, so every text check gains).
On the Pi, posting {"name":"k","text":"x..."} to a stateless app went
from 652-655 to 3,737-3,953 requests/s with 256 KiB of text (server
CPU 1.52 to 0.25 ms a request, peak RSS 5.2 to 3.2-3.4 MiB) and from
29.1k to 76.3-76.7k/s with 4 KiB; the load generator gains a json
method and benchmarks/http/echo.aup is the app.
