Subject: [PATCH] Add fast-lanes for '++'/2 and '--'/2 on nil arguments

Currently appending an empty list to another list causes the left-hand
side list to be fully copied. We can skip the append operation when the
right-hand side is nil since it shouldn't change the left-hand side
list. In this fast-lane we scan the list to determine if it is improper
so that cases like `[1, 2 | 3] ++ []` behave the same as cases like
`[1, 2 | 3] ++ [4]`: return a badarg error.

This patch adds similar fast-lanes for '--'/2: we can return the first
argument when either the first or second arguments are nil.
