Skip middleware code when there are no user middlewares installed (#2629

)

* Skip middleware code when there are no user middlewares installed

Fixes performance issue introduced by #2577, boosting from 8K req/sec
to almost 9K req/sec.

If there are no middlewares installed by the user the attribute
`request._match_info.current_app` already looks at to the right app,
this is by design.
