AK: Convince GCC that m_outline_capacity isn't being read

Previously GCC came to the conclusion that we were reading
m_outline_capacity via ByteBuffer(ByteBuffer const&) -> grow()
-> capacity() even though that could never be the case because
m_size is 0 at that point which means we have an inline buffer
and capacity() would return inline_capacity in that case without
reading m_outline_capacity.

This makes GCC inline parts of the grow() function into the
ByteBuffer copy constructor which seems sufficient for GCC to
realize that m_outline_capacity isn't actually being read.
