This also releases our benchmark to the open source repository. Add comprehensive microbenchmarks comparing `regex` and `RE2` across all `Replace` and `GlobalReplace` APIs and usage patterns Across Perflab measurements, `regex` outperforms `RE2` by 2.1x-2.2x on global literal replacements, achieves 1.3x-2.6x higher scan throughput on no-match haystacks (up to 15.6 GiB/s), and is up to 6.9x faster on single capture replacements for typical buffer sizes (<= 32 KB).
