Rework fast/slow path alloc API
...
This lets users do gc_allocate_fast() and know that if they got a
non-NULL result, we could allocate without GC, and so no object was
moved.

Rework options interface
...
Users will want to set options from an environment variable or something
like that. Particular GC implementations will want to expose an
expanded set of options. For these reasons we make the options
interface a bit more generalized and include parsing.

Add ephemeron implementation
...
This commit adds support for ephemerons to the API and wires it into the
collectors. It also adds a new test.

Add conservative stack capture

This isn't really wired up yet anywhere, but add a precursor to
conservative stack scanning.

Mostly implementation-independent inline allocation
...
This is a step towards separate compilation of the GC without losing
performance. Only remaining task is the write barrier.

Separate tagging from collector
...
The collector now has an abstract interface onto the embedder. The
embedder has to supply some functionality, such as tracing and
forwarding. This is a pretty big change in terms of lines but it's
supposed to have no functional or performance change.

Always add a header onto objects
...
We're targetting systems that need to be able to inspect the kind of an
object, so this information has to be somewhere. If it's out-of-line,
we might save memory, but we would lose locality. Concretely in Guile
the tag bits are in the object itself.
