   <!--
   Thanks for sending a pull request!  Here are some tips for you:
     1. File a JIRA issue first and use it as a prefix of your PR title, e.g., 
`ORC-001: Fix ABC`.
     2. Use your PR title to summarize what this PR proposes instead of 
describing the problem.
     3. Make PR title and description complete because these will be the 
permanent commit log.
     4. If possible, provide a concise and reproducible example to reproduce 
the issue for a faster review.
     5. If the PR is unfinished, use GitHub PR Draft feature.

   This PR optimizes the C++ implementation of orc::RleDecoderV2::nextDirect. 
It provides different methods for different bit sizes, which significantly 
reduces the instructions and branches. Note that only bit sizes of 
4,8,16,24,32,40,48,56,64 are optimized in this PR. bitSize 1 and 2 are skipped 
since they usually have short runs which won't benefit from loop unrolling. 
Other deprecated bit sizes, e.g. 3,5,6,7 are also skipped.
   
   When the bit size is specified, we can better exhaust the buffer before 
calling readByte(). This also improves performance.
   
   ### Why are the changes needed?
   <!--
   Please clarify why the changes are needed. For instance,
     1. If you propose a new API, clarify the use case for a new API.
     2. If you fix a bug, you can clarify why it is a bug.

   Perf tests show that orc::RleDecoderV2::nextDirect() dominant the time in 
reading random integers. There are more details in the JIRA description.
   Performance improvement for scanning 1 billion unsigned numbers in different 
bit sizes:

   ### How was this patch tested?
   <!--
   If tests were added, say they were added here. Please make sure to add some 
test cases that check the changes thoroughly including negative and positive 
cases if possible.

how you tested step by step, ideally copy and paste-able, so that other 
reviewers can test and check, and descendants can verify in the future.
   If tests were not added, please describe why they were not added and/or why 
it was difficult to add.
