Make HeaderName::from_static const

... plus some clean-up.

It was only after I came up with the `const fn
StandardHeader::from_bytes() -> Option<StandardHeader>` scheme that I
noticed the debug+wasm32-wasi version of parse_hdr which had something
very similar.

While cleaning up that function, I realized it still would still panic
if an attempted name was too long, which had been fixed for all other
targets and profiles in hyperium#433.  Then, I thought it would be worth seeing
if the use of `eq!` in the primary version of `parse_hdr` still made any
difference.

And, it would not appear so. At least not on x86_64, nor wasm32-wasi run
via wasmtime  I've run the benchmarks a number of times now, and it
seems the only significant performance change anywhere is actually that
of `from_static` itself, which now seems to run in about 2/3 the time on
average.

Unfortunately, `const fn` still cannot `panic!`, but I've followed the
lead from `HeaderValue::from_static`.  While that version required 1.46,
this new function requires 1.49.  That is almost 8 months old, so
hopefully this isn't too controversial!
