match limit takes at least 13% of the time on the SunSpider regexp-dna test

Make the limit test slightly more efficient. It is not clear how much of a win it is,
as the improvement on regexp-dna varies from 2.3% to 0.6% depending on what revision I
apply the patch to. Today, the win on regexp-dna was minimal, but the total win was whopping
0.5%, due to random code generation changes.
