Investigate string decoding performance optimizations

XMLWordPrintableJSON

      Investigation

      TextDecoder decode vs Buffer toString.
      Buffer.toString performs better on small inputs, textdecoder performs better on large inputs, look into a way of potentially using either or both to improve BSON decoding.

      See attached benchmark file

      downloaded utf8: 13737 bytes
small exmp utf8: 96 bytes
large Buffer toString x 13,435 ops/sec ±0.62% (93 runs sampled)
large TextDe decode   x 25,839 ops/sec ±0.83% (93 runs sampled)
small Buffer toString x 1,871,376 ops/sec ±0.54% (96 runs sampled)
small TextDe decode   x 312,321 ops/sec ±7.32% (49 runs sampled)
Fastest is small Buffer toString
