Another unsatisfactory but working patch

This is about a 10% speedup for :nth-child on slickspeed. Unfortunately, it's
basically just manually inlining part of Node::renderStyle(). The correct
solution is to make renderStyle() non-virtual and have it call a virtual
function only in the uncommon case, but for reasons unknown that doesn't speed
things up. Attempts to inline it (which presumably would speed things up as
this does) have run into circular include issues.
