This patch streamlines and specializes various `String::indexOf` methods. Mainly avoids the need for clamping and doing checks that are redundant in almost all cases, moving the checks to the API boundary where they are needed.
This improves performance both at peak and during startup/warmup. Since indexOf is heavily used in bootstrapping code it makes sense to slightly dial back abstraction and delegation, which in this case also brought some benefit to peak performance.
