[vectorIntrinsics] RFR: Add utf8 decoding benchmarks

Following discussions on the mailing list, I'm submitting three benchmarks around UTF-8 decoding:
 - decode: uses a while-loop based implementation currently in use in the JDK
 - decodeVector: uses a lookup table with vector operations for 1-3 bytes characters
 - decodeVectorASCII: uses a simple vector operation to accelerate parsing ASCII-only characters

We don't observe the expected speedups with either decodeVector and decodeVectorASCII, so these are, I think, good test cases to further develop the Vector API.
