 Following on #28575, there are some more things we can do to make this
 core code run faster:

 The ampersand replacement pattern is running inside the loop for no
 apparent reason.  We can get an overall 10% performance boost just by
 moving that one pattern to after the loop.

 _wptexturize_pushpop_element() may be unnecessarily running regex code
 that could be replaced with simple string searches, for up to 7%
 performance boost.

 Any opportunity to remove or consolidate the $dynamic patterns will
 improve performance by about 4% per pattern removed.
