Norman Maurer ec80b1e50f Eliminate memory copy in ByteToMessageDecoder whenever possible
Motivation:

Currently when there are bytes left in the cumulation buffer we do a byte copy to produce the input buffer for the decode method. This can put quite some overhead on the impl.

Modification:

- Use a CompositeByteBuf to eliminate the byte copy.
- Allow to specify if a CompositeBytebug should be used or not as some handlers can only act on one ByteBuffer in an efficient way (like SslHandler :( ).

Result:

Performance improvement as shown in the following benchmark.
