Subject: Optimize generating numbers for bullets in Word

Optimize generating numbers for bullets in Word

Using char[] instead of String improves performance of this
operation considerably, especially in JDK 11+ where StringBuilder
was switched to work on bytes instead of chars.

This is likely only relevant for very large documents, it was visible
in a synthetic test-file from fuzzing.
