to_digit simplification (less jumps)

I just realised we might be able to make use of the fact that changing case in ascii is easy to help simplify to_digit some more.

It looks a bit cleaner and it looks like it's less jumps and there's less instructions in the generated assembly:

The benchmarks don't really tell me much. Maybe a slight improvement on the var radix.

Before:

I removed the likely as it resulted in a few less instructions. (It's not been in there long - I added it in the last to_digit iteration).
