Simple performance benchmarks: label, macro and token lookups

Simple scripts to generate performance benchmarks for label,
macro and token lookups.  The label and macro lookups are simple
numerical sequences; it may be desirable to add some more
sophisticated algorithms for producing tokens in case we want to
compare different hash functions against each other.
