Charlie Marsh 574c0e0105 Use match instead of phf for confusable lookup (#5953)
I don't know whether we want to make this change but here's some data...

Binary size:

- `main`: 30,384
- `charlie/match-phf`: 30,416

llvm-lines:

- `main`: 1,784,148
- `charlie/match-phf`: 1,789,877

llvm-lines and binary size are both unchanged (or, by < 5) when moving
from `u8` to `u32` return types, and even when moving to `char` keys and
values. I didn't expect this, but I'm not very knowledgable on this
topic.

The `-with-skip` variants add our optimization which first checks
whether the character is ASCII. So `match` is way, way faster than PHF,
but it tends not to matter since almost all source code is ASCII anyway.
