Optimize try_eval_bits to avoid layout queries

This specifically targets match checking, but is possibly more widely
useful as well. In code with large, single-value match statements, we
were previously spending a lot of time running layout_of for the
primitive types (integers, chars) -- which is essentially useless. This
optimizes the code to avoid those query calls by directly obtaining the
size for these types, when possible.

It may be worth considering adding a `size_of` query in the future which
might be far faster, especially if specialized for "const" cases --
match arms being the most obvious example. It's possibly such a function
would benefit from *not* being a query as well, since it's trivially
evaluatable from the sty for many cases whereas a query needs to hash
the input and such.
