Previously YARV bytecode implemented constant caching by having a pair
of instructions, opt_getinlinecache and opt_setinlinecache, wrapping a
series of getconstant calls (with putobject providing supporting
arguments).
This commit replaces that pattern with a new instruction,
opt_getconstant_path, handling both getting/setting the inline cache and
fetching the constant on a cache miss.
This is implemented by storing the full constant path as a
null-terminated array of IDs inside of the IC structure. idNULL is used
to signal an absolute constant reference.
$ ./miniruby --dump=insns -e '::Foo::Bar::Baz'
== disasm: #<ISeq:<main>@-e:1 (1,0)-(1,13)> (catch: FALSE)
0000 opt_getconstant_path <ic:0 ::Foo::Bar::Baz> ( 1)[Li]
0002 leave
The motivation for this is that we had increasingly found the need to
disassemble the instructions between the opt_getinlinecache and
opt_setinlinecache in order to determine the constant we are fetching,
or otherwise store metadata.
This disassembly was done:
* In opt_setinlinecache, to register the IC against the constant names
it is using for granular invalidation.
* In rb_iseq_free, to unregister the IC from the invalidation table.
* In YJIT to find the position of a opt_getinlinecache instruction to
invalidate it when the cache is populated
* In YJIT to register the constant names being used for invalidation.
With this change we no longe need disassemly for these (in fact
rb_iseq_each is now unused), as the list of constant names being
referenced is held in the IC. This should also make it possible to make
more optimizations in the future.
This may also reduce the size of iseqs, as previously each segment
required 32 bytes (on 64-bit platforms) for each constant segment. This
implementation only stores one ID per-segment.
There should be no significant performance change between this and the
previous implementation. Previously opt_getinlinecache was a "leaf"
instruction, but it included a jump (almost always to a separate cache
line). Now opt_getconstant_path is a non-leaf (it may
raise/autoload/call const_missing) but it does not jump. These seem to
even out.

This commit reintroduces finer-grained constant cache invalidation.
After 8008fb7 got merged, it was causing issues on token-threaded
builds (such as on Windows).
The issue was that when you're iterating through instruction sequences
and using the translator functions to get back the instruction structs,
you're either using `rb_vm_insn_null_translator` or
`rb_vm_insn_addr2insn2` depending if it's a direct-threading build.
`rb_vm_insn_addr2insn2` does some normalization to always return to
you the non-trace version of whatever instruction you're looking at.
`rb_vm_insn_null_translator` does not do that normalization.
This means that when you're looping through the instructions if you're
trying to do an opcode comparison, it can change depending on the type
of threading that you're using. This can be very confusing. So, this
commit creates a new translator function
`rb_vm_insn_normalizing_translator` to always return the non-trace
version so that opcode comparisons don't have to worry about different
configurations.

Current behavior - caches depend on a global counter. All constant mutations cause caches to be invalidated.
```ruby
class A
B = 1
end
def foo
A::B # inline cache depends on global counter
end
foo # populate inline cache
foo # hit inline cache
C = 1 # global counter increments, all caches are invalidated
foo # misses inline cache due to `C = 1`
```
Proposed behavior - caches depend on name components. Only constant mutations with corresponding names will invalidate the cache.
```ruby
class A
B = 1
end
def foo
A::B # inline cache depends constants named "A" and "B"
end
foo # populate inline cache
foo # hit inline cache
C = 1 # caches that depend on the name "C" are invalidated
foo # hits inline cache because IC only depends on "A" and "B"
```
Examples of breaking the new cache:
```ruby
module C
# Breaks `foo` cache because "A" constant is set and the cache in foo depends
# on "A" and "B"
class A; end
end
B = 1
```
We expect the new cache scheme to be invalidated less often because names aren't frequently reused. With the cache being invalidated less, we can rely on its stability more to keep our constant references fast and reduce the need to throw away generated code in YJIT.

e7fc353f04 reverted vm_ic_hit_p's signature change made in 53babf35ef,
which broke JIT compilation of getinlinecache.
To make sure it doesn't happen again, I separated vm_inlined_ic_hit_p to
make the intention clear.

Other `_mjit_compile_*.erb` files don't use goto. These files'd better
be consistent for readability.

constant cache `IC` is accessed by non-atomic manner and there are
thread-safety issues, so Ruby 3.0 disables to use const cache on
non-main ractors.
This patch enables it by introducing `imemo_constcache` and allocates
it by every re-fill of const cache like `imemo_callcache`.
[Bug #17510]
Now `IC` only has one entry `IC::entry` and it points to
`iseq_inline_constant_cache_entry`, managed by T_IMEMO object.
`IC` is atomic data structure so `rb_mjit_before_vm_ic_update()` and
`rb_mjit_after_vm_ic_update()` is not needed.
