Changes in INT:->STRING to improve performance. 30% faster for huge
bignums (10^1000), up to 2x-3x faster for small bignums (up to
10^100), slightly faster for fixnums.
. Use a local version of DIGIT->CHAR since we don't need to check the
radix.
. PRINT-FIXNUM modified to be useful for generating digits in the
middle of a number.
. PRINT-MEDIUM and PRINT-LARGE work in units of several digits, the
length of a unit pre-computed so that a unit can be printed using
fixnum arithmetic.
. PRINT-MEDIUM chops off groups of digits that can be printed by
PRINT-FIXNUM. The microcode primitive LISTIFY-BIGNUM is no longer
used.
. PRINT-LARGE has a special check to try to avoid the last multiply
in building the power stack (which is asymptotically 2/3 of the
cost of building the stack). The recursion termination check is
generalized to also catch sequences of digits with enough leading
zeroes to be formatted by PRINT-FIXNUM (this can double the speed
of printing numbers with many zeros).

Performance enhancements:
1. Changed DRAGON4-FIXUP to use fast scaling similar to described in
Burger and Dybvig (reference in file). This makes an order of
magnitude difference for unparsing flonums with large exponents.
2. Changed DRAGON4 to pass exponent to DRAGON4-FIXUP for scaling
estimate.
3. Systematically replaced calls to generic operators with calls to
int: variants (and rat:expt). The vast majority of operations are
on bignums. Gives a gain of about 20%.
