8e7df4b7c6 Rename size_pool -> heap
Now that we've inlined the eden_heap into the size_pool, we should
rename the size_pool to heap. So that Ruby contains multiple heaps, with
different sized objects.

The term heap as a collection of memory pages is more in memory
management nomenclature, whereas size_pool was a name chosen out of
necessity during the development of the Variable Width Allocation
features of Ruby.

The concept of size pools was introduced in order to facilitate
different sized objects (other than the default 40 bytes). They wrapped
the eden heap and the tomb heap, and some related state, and provided a
reasonably simple way of duplicating all related concerns, to provide
multiple pools that all shared the same structure but held different
objects.

Since then various changes have happend in Ruby's memory layout:

* The concept of tomb heaps has been replaced by a global free pages list,
  with each page having it's slot size reconfigured at the point when it
  is resurrected
* the eden heap has been inlined into the size pool itself, so that now
  the size pool directly controls the free_pages list, the sweeping
  page, the compaction cursor and the other state that was previously
  being managed by the eden heap.

Now that there is no need for a heap wrapper, we should refer to the
collection of pages containing Ruby objects as a heap again rather than
a size pool

cd1724bdde rb_str_concat_literals: use rb_str_buf_append
That's about 1.30x faster.

31a5586d1e rb_str_buf_append: add a fast path for ENC_CODERANGE_VALID
If the RHS has valid encoding, and both strings have the same
encoding, we can use the fast path.

However we need to update the LHS coderange.

f954c5dae4 string.c: use str_enc_fastpath in TERM_LEN
Not having to fetch the rb_encoding save a significant
amount of time.

Additionally, even when we have to fetch it, we can do
it faster using `ENCODING_GET` rather than `rb_enc_get`.

0ae8dbbee0 rb_str_buf_append: fastpath to str_buf_cat
If the LHS is ASCII compatible and the RHS is 7BIT
we can directly concat without being concerned about
anything else.

Benchmark:

```

Note that in the benchmark, the RHS always have a precomputed
coderange. So the benchmark never enter the slowpath of having to
scan the RHS. However it's extremly likely that we'll end
up scanning it anyway in rb_enc_cr_str_buf_cat

906f7cb3e7 vm_opt_ltlt: call rb_str_buf_append directly if RHS is a String
`rb_str_concat` does a lot of type checking we can easily bypass.
