Add benchmarks for Vec to compare to SmallVec

Preliminary results aren't good, although no benches check for cache efficiency (for example `Vec<Vec<T>>` vs `Vec<SmallVec<[T; N]>>`).

Here's a comparison. I used `sed` to split the `_vec` benchmarks out and rename them to have the same name, so `cargo benchcmp` can understand them.

```
 name                     vec.bench ns/iter          smallvec.bench ns/iter          diff ns/iter   diff %  speedup
 bench_extend             69                         53                                       -16  -23.19%   x 1.30
 bench_extend_from_slice  64                         52                                       -12  -18.75%   x 1.23
 bench_from_slice         34                         52                                        18   52.94%   x 0.65
 bench_insert             1,228                      1,202                                    -26   -2.12%   x 1.02
 bench_macro_from_elem    50                         66                                        16   32.00%   x 0.76
 bench_macro_from_list    33                         47                                        14   42.42%   x 0.70
 bench_push               359                        424                                       65   18.11%   x 0.85
 bench_pushpop            251                        348                                       97   38.65%   x 0.72
```

Closes #87
