Rollup merge of rust-lang#124294 - tspiteri:ilog-first-iter, r=the8472
Unroll first iteration of checked_ilog loop This follows the optimization of rust-lang#115913. As shown in rust-lang#115913 (comment), the performance was improved in all important cases, but some regressions were introduced for the benchmarks `u32_log_random_small`, `u8_log_random` and `u8_log_random_small`. Basically, rust-lang#115913 changed the implementation from one division per iteration to one multiplication per iteration plus one division. When there are zero iterations, this is a regression from zero divisions to one division. This PR avoids this by avoiding the division if we need zero iterations by returning `Some(0)` early. It also reduces the number of multiplications by one in all other cases.
