Implement a complete set of integer division operator pairs.
Given a numerator n and a denominator d, each operator pair computes
an integral quotient q and the induced remainder r = n - d q such
that |r| < |d|. There are five pairs: ceiling, euclidean, floor,
round, and truncate. Ceiling, floor, round, and truncate compute the
rounded quotient as their names suggest. Euclidean division is floor
division for positive denominators, and ceiling division for negative
denominators, so that it exhibits the stronger property 0 <= r < |d|.

New procedure REFERENCE-BARRIER.
(REFERENCE-BARRIER <x>) guarantees that the garbage collector will
assume <x> to be live at least until the call to REFERENCE-BARRIER,
if control can ever reach it.
This is implemented as an alias for the identity procedure currently,
but a more efficient implementation not involving a general procedure
call is conceivable for the future.

New stack-sampling profiler.
For usage, see runtime/stack-sample.scm. May be worthwhile to write
documentation in the user manual.
This is *not* a replacement for a PC-sampler, which can give
information that is more precise at one level and less precise at
another level. See the comments for details.

Rework the hash table entry abstraction.
This simplifies some of the code (at the expense of a longer
definition for the abstraction leading to a longer hashtb.scm
altogether), and makes it less prone to mistakes with using the
keys and data of entries without checking their validity -- which
will matter especially for hash tables with ephemeron entries when
those are implemented.
Check the results of the key hash table function. Sprinkle some
guarantees throughout the code. Disable type and range checks in
the hash table methods, where it is safe to do so.
With type and range checks still enabled, performance on strong eq
and eqv hash tables is no different from what it was last week.
Performance on weak hash tables is ever so slightly worse, but that
is because weak hash tables were incorrect before.
New tests check for some regressions.

Fix SRFI 69 HASH-TABLE-FOLD.
The specification makes no mention of any constraint that the combine
procedure not update the hash table, so we must be prepared for that
case. The old definition for HASH-TABLE-FOLD now has the new name
%HASH-TABLE-FOLD, used internally by the procedures that need to fold
but need not update the hash table while doing so.

Implement ephemerons.
Ephemerons are like weak pairs, except the datum is dropped if the
key is dropped, and references to the key through the datum don't
count if the only references to the datum are through the ephemeron.
In other words, the weak references to the key and datum are dropped
iff the key can be proven dead; conversely, the references to the key
and datum are preserved iff somebody else cares about the key.
