On top of "tiny allocator" (cl/38750047), reduces number of allocs by 1% on json.
No code must rely on zero termination. So will also make debugging simpler,
by uncovering issues earlier.

json-1
allocated                 7949686      7915766      -0.43%
allocs                      93778        92790      -1.05%
time                    100957795     97250949      -3.67%
rest of the metrics are too noisy.
