Optimize 'construct at end' loops in vector

Summary:
This change adds local 'end' and 'pos' variables for the main loop inmstead of using the ConstructTransaction variables directly.

We observed that not all vector initialization and resize operations got properly vectorized, i.e., (partially) unrolled into XMM stores for floats.

For example, `vector<int32_t> v(n, 1)` gets vectorized, but `vector<float> v(n, 1)`. It looks like the compiler assumes the state is leaked / aliased in the latter case (unclear how/why for float, but not for int32), and because of this fails to see vectorization optimization?

See https://gcc.godbolt.org/z/UWhiie

By using a local `__new_end_` (fixed), and local `__pos` (copied into __tx.__pos_ per iteration), we offer the compiler a clean loop for unrolling.

A demonstration can be seen in the isolated logic in https://gcc.godbolt.org/z/KoCNWv
