ASCII fastpath for towupper and towlower.

This change elides unnecessary calls to __find_icu_symbol
for ASCII chars and improves PUBG mobile game loading time by 7% on
hikey620(Cortex-A53):

name                old time/op  new time/op  delta
PUBG_0.13.0_Launch   41.5s ± 2%   37.7s ± 3%  -9.24%  (p=0.008 n=5+5)

Below are the bionic benchmark results on a Pixel 2 XL for 64-bit,
showing a large speedup for ASCII and only a small slowdown for non-ASCII.
