* characters and indexOf() is much cheaper than replace().
* The worst case does suffer slightly from the additional calls, therefore the
* opt_isLikelyToContainHtmlChars option has been included for situations
* where all 4 HTML entities are very likely to be present and need escaping.
*
* Some benchmarks (times tended to fluctuate +-0.05ms):
* FireFox IE6
* (no chars / average (mix of cases) / all 4 chars)
* no checks 0.13 / 0.22 / 0.22 0.23 / 0.53 / 0.80
* indexOf 0.08 / 0.17 / 0.26 0.22 / 0.54 / 0.84
* indexOf + re test 0.07 / 0.17 / 0.28 0.19 / 0.50 / 0.85
*
* An additional advantage of checking if replace actually needs to be called
* is a reduction in the number of object allocations, so as the size of the
* application grows the difference between the various methods would increase.
*
* @param {string} str string to be escaped.
* @param {boolean=} opt_isLikelyToContainHtmlChars Don't perform a check to see
