RFR: 8327791: Optimization for new BigDecimal(String) [v4]

[Shaojin Wen]

> The current BigDecimal(String) constructor calls String#toCharArray, which has a memory allocation.
> 
> 
> public BigDecimal(String val) {
>     this(val.toCharArray(), 0, val.length()); // allocate char[]
> }
> 
> 
> When the length is greater than 18, create a char[]
> 
> 
> boolean isCompact = (len <= MAX_COMPACT_DIGITS); // 18
> if (!isCompact) {
>     // ...
> } else {
>     char[] coeff = new char[len]; // allocate char[]
>     // ...
> }
> 
> 
> This PR eliminates the two memory allocations mentioned above, resulting in an approximate 60% increase in performance..
