Add field-logging write barrier (fast path only)

Add a new kind of write barrier, one which has a bit per field; the
mutator that sets the bit will need to add the field's location (the
edge) to a remembered set. Here we just have the fast-path
implementation.

Fix an ABA problem in the nofl space
...
We use Treiber stacks to represent sets of blocks: blocks to sweep, full
blocks, and so on. This is fine as long as we are only adding to or
only removing from those sets, but as soon as we have concurrent add and
remove, we need to avoid the ABA problem.
Concurrent add and remove occurs for partly-full blocks, which are both
acquired and released by mutators; empty blocks, which can be added to
by heap growth at the same time as the mutator acquires them; and the
paged-out queue, which is also concurrent with heap growth/shrinkage.

we simplify MMC by traversing roots only during the pause. This lets us
use gc_tracer parallel root-tracing.
