Use memchr2 to skip non-line-ending bytes when counting and normalizing line endings, while continuing to treat CRLF as one ending.

Performance

Measured on an Apple M3 Pro with macOS 15.7.7 and rustc 1.97.0. Both origin/master (6c898499) and this change (64daab4d) were built with --profile profiling, then compared with hyperfine using:

prek run mixed-line-ending --all-files

The table uses pooled medians from two order-reversed runs to reduce ordering bias:

Workload Runs per binary master This PR Change
prek repo: 309 files, 3.97 MB 100 44.65 ms 44.70 ms no measurable change
20 × 1 MiB LF text files, ~83-byte lines 80 120.05 ms 100.54 ms 16.3% faster (1.19×)
20 × 1 MiB mixed LF/CRLF files, including rewrite 60 287.30 ms 274.51 ms 4.5% faster (1.05×)

The normal repository case remains dominated by process startup, Git enumeration, and file I/O. The improvement becomes visible as the amount of text scanned per invocation grows; rewriting sees a smaller gain because output I/O dominates.
