[issue4868] Faster utf-8 decoding

[Martin v. Löwis]

Martin v. Löwis <martin at v.loewis.de> added the comment:

Can you please upload it to Rietveld?

I'm skeptical about changes that merely rely on the compiler's register
allocator to do a better job. This kind of change tends to pessimize the
code for other compilers, and also may pessimize it for future versions
of the same compiler.
