lib/core: Pre-allocate at least 16 slots when enlarging array

[lbajolet]

This PR changes the way NativeArrays are enlarged to avoid pre-allocating too much for small arrays.

This is the same kind of optimization as on FlatBuffer for similar cases.

Is this based on objective and verifiable facts?

based on objective and verifiable facts => Not really, well, this does bring down the number of allocations in some programs, considering that the size allocated here is relatively small, I thought this could help to avoid allocating small arrays repeatedly.
However, is it the best minimum size, that I'm not sure.

I could run some tests on Nit programs to determine whether such a behaviour is preferable, maybe introduce a array_stat or something (if it's not already here).

time on nitc/nitc/nitc is a good proof as it abuse arrays.
You should also update some tests
