This commit reverts the const usage introduced by 68a6abc
because v8 currently cannot optimize functions that contain
these uses of const (unsupported phi use of const variable).
The performance difference in this case can be up to ~130%
for non-ascii/binary string encodings.

By limiting property getting/setting to only where they are
absolutely necessary, we can achieve greater performance
especially with small utf8 inputs and any size base64 inputs.

The copyright and license notice is already in the LICENSE file. There
is no justifiable reason to also require that it be included in every
file, since the individual files are not individually distributed except
as part of the entire package.
Turn on strict mode for the files in the lib/ directory. It helps
catch bugs and can have a positive effect on performance.

This patch simplifies the implementation of StringDecoder, fixes the
failures from the new test cases, and also no longer relies on v8's
WriteUtf8 function to encode individual surrogates.
