fourthTier: DFG should optimize identifier string equality

This is a 20% speed-up for string equality comparisons when both strings are
identifiers.

This is important for two reasons:

1) Using strings as enumerations is an idiom. A great example is typeof. It
   would be great if this performed better.

2) When I implement switch_string in the DFG, it would be great to optimize
   the case where the switched-on value is an identifier. That would involve
   a simple binary switch rather than a more complicated trie-switch over
   characters.

Add a benchmark for string equality where there is a long identifier, and
also add a benchmark for non-identifier string equality (since the previous
test for string equality was really identifier equality).
