ifcparse: cache the current page in the paged file reader

Every peek(), get() and SWAR word read on a paged reader went through the
page cache's hash map and LRU list, so tokenizing through pages ran at a
fifth of the speed of the in-memory buffer. The reader now remembers the
page its cursor was last on and serves reads that fall inside it from the
pointer, revalidated against an eviction counter on the implementation
so a page that left the cache is never read through a stale pointer.
Reads that straddle a page boundary take the existing paths.

The whole tokenizer over each file, 64 KB pages, 64 cached (4 MB):
                        in-memory buffer   paged before   paged after
  TXG          58 MB    200 MB/s           42 MB/s        142 MB/s
  210_King    148 MB    181 MB/s           34 MB/s        118 MB/s
  OKgate22    232 MB    197 MB/s           38 MB/s        128 MB/s

This is the step that makes reading in pages a candidate for the default
path rather than a fallback; the remaining gap is the page fetch itself.
