To take optimal advantage of the pre-existing optimization for repeated filters we could split the application of different types of stringifiers.

The resulting difference in order of evaluation is not observable by conventional means since all reference type share the same object stringifier, and the others are filtering primitives (floats and doubles) which have been passed by value already. 

This change neutral on many concatenation expression shapes, but for any complex expressions with interleaving float/double and reference parameters it brings a straightforward reduction in rebinds and underlying LFs generated. For example on the [MixedStringCombinations.java](https://gist.github.com/cl4es/08fb581dece3a73e89bfa52337bc4248) test there's a modest 2% reduction in total classes loaded with this change (from 16209 to 15872)
