Review Comment:
   Same fix as the scalar bench above — 
`Catch::Benchmark::keep_memory(output_simd.data())` added in faeb167c8.

+/** @file
+
+  SIMD-accelerated bulk ASCII tolower copy.
+
+  Used on the URL canonicalization fast path for cache-key digests
+  (src/proxy/hdrs/URL.cc::url_CryptoHash_get_fast). The scalar loop is
+  the bottleneck for hosts and schemes long enough to vectorize; for
+  shorter inputs the scalar tail handles them with no SIMD overhead.
+
+  Semantics match a byte-at-a-time loop using ParseRules::ink_tolower():
+
+    - Bytes in 'A'..'Z' (0x41..0x5A) have bit 5 set, mapping them to
+      'a'..'z'. All other bytes (including 0x80..0xFF) pass through
+      unchanged. There is no UTF-8 case folding.
+
+    - The destination is written byte-for-byte; src and dst must point
+      to non-overlapping regions of size at least @n bytes.
+
+  Implementation note: the bodies are stacked widest-first and each
+  drains its block size before falling through to the next. A build
+  with AVX-512BW gets the 64-byte body as the main loop, then at most
+  one 32-byte AVX2 iteration and one 16-byte SSE2 iteration to drain
+  the remainder before the scalar tail handles 0-15 bytes. Builds
+  without the wider ISAs simply skip those blocks. Selection is purely
+  compile-time; no runtime dispatch.
