Opportunistically use dense iteration for archetypal iteration (bevye…

…ngine#14049)

# Objective
- currently, bevy employs sparse iteration if any of the target
components in the query are stored in a sparse set. it may lead to
increased cache misses in some cases, potentially impacting performance.
- partial fixes bevyengine#12381 

## Solution

- use dense iteration when an archetype and its table have the same
entity count.
- to avoid introducing complicate unsafe noise, this pr only implement
for `for_each ` style iteration.
- added a benchmark to test performance for hybrid iteration.


## Performance


![image](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/45868716/5cce13cf-6ff2-4861-9576-e75edc63bd46)

nearly 2x win in specific scenarios, and no performance degradation in
other test cases.
