This implements a replacer for when all old strings are single
bytes, but new values are not.

When all old & new string values are single bytes,
byteReplacer is now used, instead of the generic
algorithm.
BenchmarkGenericMatch 10000 102519 ns/op
BenchmarkByteByteMatch 1000000 2178 ns/op
fast path, when nothing matches:
BenchmarkByteByteNoMatch 1000000 1109 ns/op
comparisons to multiple Replace calls:
BenchmarkByteByteReplaces 100000 16164 ns/op
comparison to strings.Map:
BenchmarkByteByteMap 500000 5454 ns/op

This is just a new API to do many replacements at once.
While the point of this API is to be faster than doing replacements one
at a time, the implementation in this CL has the optimizations removed
and may actually be slower.
Future CLs will bring back & add optimizations.
