ext/uri: speed up Uri\Rfc3986\Uri component reads

Five related changes to uri_parser_rfc3986.c that together cut parse
+ 7 reads on a 17-URL mix from 0.842s to 0.653s (1.7M parses, pinned
to a single CPU). That's a 22% wall-time reduction and a 29% throughput
increase. Parse-only moves from 0.394s to 0.378s, about 4%.

1. get_normalized_uri() now aliases the raw URI when nothing requires
   normalization. uriNormalizeSyntaxMaskRequiredExA reports which
   components need rewriting; a zero mask means the parsed URI is
   already canonical and the code skips the uriCopyUriMmA deep copy
   plus the full uriNormalizeSyntaxExMmA pass. This is the biggest
   single contributor. The dirty mask is cached on the struct so
   multiple non-raw reads on the same instance run the scan once.

2. The port now lives in a cache on the uris struct. The parse path
   stashes the converted zend_long directly, so the first port_read
   serves it without re-scanning. Subsequent reads short-circuit. The
   write path invalidates the cache.

3. port_str_to_zend_long_checked replaces its stack-copy + ZEND_STRTOUL
   with an inline digit accumulator. Uriparser has already validated
   that the port text is ASCII digits only, so the branch-heavy strtoul
   path is unnecessary.

4. uriparser_create_uris uses emalloc + targeted field init instead of
   ecalloc. The struct is ~440 bytes. We overwrite the uri member right
   after this function returns and we only touch normalized_uri once
   the init flag becomes true, so only the flag fields and dirty_mask
   need zeroing.

5. php_uri_parser_rfc3986_destroy skips uriFreeUriMembersMmA on
   normalized_uri when it was never built or when it aliases the raw
   uri. Paired with the emalloc change: the struct used to be fully
   zeroed by ecalloc, so the free was safe without a guard. Now that
   most of the struct is uninitialized, the guard is required.

No behavior change. All 309 tests in ext/uri/tests pass. I also checked
that URIs which need normalization (http://EXAMPLE.com/A/%2e%2e/c
resolving to /c) still hit the full normalize path, so the alias
shortcut is gated by a non-zero dirty mask.
