utf8.c: speculatively assume utf-8 in strbuf_add_wrapped_text()
is_utf8() works by calling utf8_width() for each character at the
supplied location. In strbuf_add_wrapped_text(), we do that anyway
while wrapping the lines. So instead of checking the encoding
beforehand, optimistically assume that it's utf-8 and wrap along
until an invalid character is hit, and when that happens start over.
This pays off if the text consists only of valid utf-8 characters.
The following command was run against the Linux kernel repo with
git 1.7.0:
$ time git log --format='%b' v2.6.32 >/dev/null
real 0m2.679s
user 0m2.580s
sys 0m0.100s
$ time git log --format='%w(60,4,8)%b' >/dev/null
real 0m4.342s
user 0m4.230s
sys 0m0.110s
And with this patch series:
$ time git log --format='%w(60,4,8)%b' >/dev/null
real 0m3.741s
user 0m3.630s
sys 0m0.110s
So the cost of wrapping is reduced to 70% in this case.
