KUDU-1938 Make UTF-8 truncation faster pt 2

character counting in the case of ASCII-only chunks (fast path) by
doubling the chunk size in a single pass from 64 to 128 bits.

> Priority: Major
> Labels: limitations, roadmap-candidate

> VARCHAR is currently not supported by Kudu. This is functionality that
> currently exists in Impala. Some client applications convert STRING to 32K
> bytes which causes performance issues so they need the VARCHAR support in
> order to integrate well with Kudu.
