Implication of increasing Symbol name size to 16 bytes #25

Hi @chronoxor,

While we wanted to add a market pair with 10 letters, we recently noticed that Symbol name is defined as 8 bytes.

What we thought could be an easy fix (just make char Name[16]) seems to have implication as there are some places where code is optimized with unrolling and bit manipulations.

Before we patch it (and eventually propose it upstream) we wanted to clarify if that kind of change could impact code mechanical sympathy and as we are not high performance cpp expert by any means, wanted you opinion on the matters

Regards
