Number parsing in `read` or `string->number` should be faster, but the
main I/O refactoring and improvements were specific to Racket-on-Chez.

In the long run, this new I/O implementation might replace the current
one in the traditional Racket implementation, but I don't know how much
of a performance different it would be.

(I recommended dropping this bullet from the announcement, since the
main changes were mainly for Racket-on-Chez. But I guess that
recommendation was too buried or got lost.)
