The current implementation of `InternStrings` will only save memory
when the whole set of labels is identical to one already seen, and this
cannot happen in the one place it is called from in Prometheus,
remote-write, which already detects identical series.

This function is called very frequently when executing PromQL functions,
and we can do it much more efficiently inside Labels.
In the common case that `__name__` comes first in the labels, we simply
re-point to start at the next label, which is nearly free.
`DropMetricName` is now so cheap I removed the cache - benchmarks show
everything still goes faster.

This reduces bulk and should avoid issues if a fix is made in one file
and not the other.
A few methods now call `Range()` instead of `range`, but nothing
performance-sensitive.

* Labels: reduce allocations when creating from TSDB
When reading the WAL, by passing references into the buffer we can avoid
copying strings under `-tags stringlabels`.

Inline one call to `decodeString`, and skip decoding the value string
until we find a match for the name.
Do a quick check on the first character in each string,
and exit early if we've gone past - labels are sorted in order.
Also improve tests and benchmark:
* labels: test Get with varying lengths - it's not typical for Prometheus labels to all be the same length.
* extend benchmark with label not found

Instead of unpacking every individual string, we skip to the point
where there is a difference, going 8 bytes at a time where possible.
Add benchmark for Compare; extend tests too.

This is a minor cosmetical change, but my IDE (and I guess many of them)
nests `labels_string.go` under `labels.go` because it assumes it's the
file generated by the `stringer` tool, which follows that naming
pattern.
