@tarekgh, this isn't for merging, but it shows appx what I had in mind for incorporating spans into Model (I know you're currently revising the surface area, so take this with a grain of salt). This eliminates a majority of the remaining allocation that occurs when using Tokenizer.CountTokens/EncodeToIds, as it avoids allocating strings for each token that's already in the cache.
Feel free to crib liberally from the second commit and close this PR. Ignore the first commit, which I submitted separately.
