(scm_init_storage): Initialize it.
* gc-malloc.c (descrease_mtrigger, increase_mtrigger): Use it.
* gc-mark.c (scm_gc_mark_dependencies): Call scm_i_string_mark,
scm_i_stringbuf_mark and scm_i_symbol_mark, as appropriate.
* gc-card.c (scm_i_sweep_card): Call scm_i_string_free,
scm_i_stringbuf_free and scm_i_symbol_free, as appropriate.
(SCM_LOCK_VAL, SCM_UNLOCK_VAL): New constants.
(SCM_LOCK_ARB, SCM_UNLOCK_ARB): Remove, effectively absorbed into
scm_try_arbiter and scm_release_arbiter.
(scm_try_arbiter, scm_release_arbiter): Use FETCH_STORE to get xchg
for speed on i386, otherwise using mutex.

(SCM_VALIDATE_STRING_COPY): Deprecated. Replaced all uses with
SCM_VALIDATE_STRING plus SCM_I_STRING_CHARS or

(SCM_VALIDATE_SUBSTRING_SPEC_COPY): Deprecated. Replaced as
above, plus scm_i_get_substring_spec.

hash.c, gc.c, gc-card.c, convert.i.c, backtrace.c, strop.c,
strorder.c, strports.c, struct.c, symbols.c, unif.c, ports.c: Use
SCM_I_STRING_CHARS, SCM_I_STRING_UCHARS, and SCM_I_STRING_LENGTH
instead of SCM_STRING_CHARS, SCM_STRING_UCHARS, and
SCM_STRING_LENGTH, respectively. Also, replaced scm_return_first
with more explicit scm_remember_upto_here_1, etc, or introduced
them in the first place.

Use them instead of SCM_SYSCALL when one or two strings need to be
converted into locale strings.
(my_rename): New, gathers platform dependent code for renaming.
(scm_rename): Use it.
(scm_readlink, scm_copy_file): Convert SCM strings to locale
strings instead of accessing their internals.
