This commit adds a tsm1 function for encoding a batch of floats into a
buffer. Further, it replaces the `bitstream` library used in the
existing encoders (and all the current decoders) with inlined bit
expressions within the encoder, significantly reducing the function call
overhead for larger batches.
The following benchmarks compare the performance of the existing
iterator based encoders, and the new batch oriented encoders. They look
at a sequential input slice and a randomly generated input slice.
