The old algorithm was comparing the string two times. One timer for smaller
and one for larger. And memcmp on a long string still costs. The new one
has a three state so it can compare smaller, greater and equal in one.
There is a reverse version too which has big advantage for file paths.

Compiling every header file again and again is quite time comsuming. There
are technics to improve this like preambles(a kind of automated
precompiled header) but they don't share their data between translation
units. This approach provides an automatically generated precompiled
header for every project and subproject to improve the loading time.
