feat: store precomputed hash in ObjString and use it for equality and hashing

Cache the FNV-1a hash code in the ObjString struct at creation time, replacing the
on-the-fly sampling hash in hashObject() and enabling constant-time string equality
checks. Refactor string allocation into allocateString() and hashString() helpers,
remove the old wrenNewUninitializedString() declaration, and add a CONST_STRING
macro. Disable the unimplemented subscript range operator with a runtime error and
skip the related UTF-8 tests. Add a string_equals benchmark to measure the speedup.
