patch applied (bytestring): improve performance of findSubstrings on small strings

[Duncan Coutts]

We discussed this briefly, but Just so I/we don't forget...

I don't think we should un-deprecate the findSubstring(s) functions. We
do need such functions but their current interfaces are not in the
spirit of the rest of the api as they uses indexes rather than
substrings/subspans. See the earlier email discussion on what a better
api should look like.
