This pull request is my way of documenting (and hopefully merging) various different attempts to improve the performance of the interactive printer. All benchmarks are run against a 100,000 line file containing 40 characters per line.

Change 1: Remove an unnecessary String clone.

Change made in commit named "Replace clone with reference".

Over 2500 runs, this made a marginal increase in performance. It's not much, but every bit adds up.

❌ Change 2: Re-use the line_buf to reduce allocations

As mentioned in #2544 (comment), I tried to re-use the line buffer when wrapping a line multiple times. Unfortunately, this resulted in a performance regression.

This avoids an unnecessary allocation and memory copy
when printing the empty panel during line wrapping.
