Update CheckCollisionSpheres() to avoid sqrt

Square root calls are computationally expensive.  In this case, they can be avoided.  Instead of checking distance<RadA+RadB, check distance squared against (RadA+RadB) squared.  The dot product of Vector3Subtract(B,A) with itself gives distance squared, so I used this code instead of an element-by-element computation of distance squared.  The only downside is that your geometric code is very readable, whereas this is less so.
