strbuf_addch is pretty inneficient as it puts NULs each time. rather
do that (sketchy) :

{
    for (;;) {
        const char *percent = strchr(fmt, '%');
        if (!percent)
            break;
        strbuf_add(sb, fmt, percent - fmt);
        fmt = percent + 1;

        /* do your stuff */
    }
    strbuf_addstr(sb, fmt);
}

Of course it's a detail as formats will probably be short. But it's a good
example to show to people wanting to write new strbuf functions.

This nitpicking apart, the timings are impressive.
