feat(common): Perf improvements in hot functions:

- extend: Use native ES6 `Object.assign` if available
- extend: Use nested for loop for non-native polyfill
- defaults: Simplify logic
- pick / omit: avoid v8 deopt. simplify. remove varargs support
- arrayTuples: unroll for arguments.length === 1, 2, 3, 4
