patch 9.1.0256: Finding autocmd events is inefficient

Problem: Finding autocmd events is inefficient Solution: Use binary search to find events, cache last found events, avoid use of strlen(), add SessionWritePost autocmd, fix test_codestyle and avoid endless loop (John Marriott) closes: #14287 Signed-off-by: John Marriott <basilisk@internode.on.net> Signed-off-by: Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org>
