Remove interpreter’s byte stack
This improves performance overall on my benchmark on x86-64, since the interpreted program-counter resides in a machine register rather than in RAM. * etc/DEBUG, src/.gdbinit: Remove xbytecode GDB command, as there is no longer a byte stack to decode. * src/bytecode.c (struct byte_stack, byte_stack_list) (relocate_byte_stack): Remove. All uses removed. (FETCH): Simplify now that pc is now local (typically, in a register) and no longer needs to be relocated. (CHECK_RANGE): Remove. All uses now done inline, in a different way. (BYTE_CODE_QUIT): Remove; now done by op_relative_branch. (exec_byte_code): Allocate a copy of the function’s bytecode, so that there is no problem if GC moves it. * src/lisp.h (struct handler): Remove byte_stack member. All uses removed. * src/thread.c (unmark_threads): Remove. All uses removed. * src/thread.h (struct thread_state): Remove m_byte_stack_list member. All uses removed. m_stack_bottom is now the first non-Lisp field.
