[PD] Vanilla [list-s2l] prototype

[Matt Barber]

Here's another update to the [list-s2l] prototype that uses a
character table to try to maximize the chance of finding matching
characters early -- on my machines it's cut some of the previous
[realtime] measurements by about 80% depending on the message (on my
macbook it takes 100 MS to break a symbol with all common ascii
characters into its characters) -- but of course it's nowhere near as
quick as the zexy object.

I think it's close to usable, especially for short symbols.  Anyone
wanna try it out?
