    math/big: faster "pure Go" addition/subtraction for long vectors · 067acd51

              (platforms w/o corresponding assembly kernels)
    
    For short vector adds there's some erradic slow-down, but overall
    these routines have become significantly faster. This only matters
    for platforms w/o native (assembly) versions of these kernels, so
    we are not concerned about the minor slow-down for short vectors.
    
    This code was already reviewed under Mercurial (golang.org/cl/172810043)
    but wasn't submitted before the switch to git.
    
    Benchmarks run on 2.3GHz Intel Core i7, running OS X 10.9.5,
    with the respective AddVV and AddVW assembly routines disabled.
