TurboHist: Fastest Histogram Construction

~0.18 - 0.90 cycles per byte
100% C (C++ compatible header) without inline assembly
Both 32 and 64 bits supported
Portable scalar functions faster than SIMD functions
Up to 22 times faster than naive solution
🆕 (2022.01) more faster, beats even other very fast assembler functions

Benchmark:

Single thread
Realistic and practical benchmark with large files.
No PURE cache benchmark

- Uniform/Skewed distribution:

Uniform: enwik9
Skewed: enwik9 bwt generated w. libdivsufsort
1GB zeros
Accurate benchmarking with command "turbohist file -I15"

Benchmark Intel CPU: i7-9700K 3.6GHz gcc 11.2
