RFR: 8269665: Clean-up toString() methods of some primitive wrappers [v2]

[Сергей Цыпанов]

> As of JDK 17 some of primitive wrappers, e.g. `Long`, `Integer`, `Double` and `Float` in their implementations of `Object.toString()` delegate to own utility `toString(primitive)` methods.
> 
> Unlike those, `Boolean`, `Byte`, `Character` and `Short` just duplicate the contents of utility methods in implementations of `Object.toString()`.
> 
> Yet another issue is a tiny discrepancy in implementation related to `Byte` and `Short` (see the first):
> 
> public static String toString(byte b) {
>     return Integer.toString((int)b, 10);
> }
> 
> public String toString() {
>     return Integer.toString((int)value);
> }
> 
> Unlike in overriden method, In utility one they explicitly specify radix which can be skipped, as implementation of `Integer.toString(int,int)` has a fast-path for radix 10, ending in `Integer.toString(int)`. This simplification gives tiny improvement, see benchmark:
