>> This PR addresses a performance degradation when constructing a new MessageFormat that contains a subformat with a pattern that is not a predefined style. This is due to internal logic which catches an IAE specifically for subformat patterns. Perf tests for choice and number are not grouped, since performance is directly tied to subformat creation.

nit: SHORT.ordinal() can be used
