add some benchmarks

[lrlna]

once we deal with #79, i think we ought to run up some benchmarks, since people have already asked me about how much faster merry is compared to x etc. i'm not sure how folks normally do these on frameworks, so starting this issue to help gather data ✨

Given we know we're gonna make changes I think we should hold off until then. After that probs run https://www.npmjs.com/package/nanobench on a bench/ dir in this repo - we should probably steal notes from how hypercore runs its tests https://github.com/mafintosh/hypercore
