Benchmark: Math.hypot vs Math.sqrt vs Math.sqrt&pow vs Math.sqrt&**2

Script Preparation code:

function testHypot() {
  for (let i=0; i < 1000; i++){
    for (let j=0; j < 1000; j++) {
      Math.hypot(i - j, j - i)
    }
  }
}
function testSqrt() {
  for (let i=0; i < 1000; i++){
    for (let j=0; j < 1000; j++) {
      Math.sqrt((i-j)*(i-j)+(j-i)*(j-i))
    }
  }
}
function testSqrtPowFn() {
  for (let i=0; i < 1000; i++){
    for (let j=0; j < 1000; j++) {
      Math.sqrt(Math.pow(i-j, 2)+Math.pow(j-i, 2))
    }
  }
}
function testSqrtPowOp() {
  for (let i=0; i < 1000; i++){
    for (let j=0; j < 1000; j++) {
      Math.sqrt((i-j)**2+(j-i)**2)
    }
  }
}
