Jean Boussier 87f9c3c65e String#gsub! Elide MatchData allocation when we know it can't escape
In gsub is used with a string replacement or a map that doesn't
have a default proc, we know for sure no code can cause the MatchData
to escape the `gsub` call.

In such case, we still have to allocate a new MatchData because we
don't know what is the lifetime of the backref, but for any subsequent
match we can re-use the MatchData we allocated ourselves, reducing
allocations significantly.

This partially fixes [Misc #20652], except when a block is used,
and partially reduce the performance impact of
