This commit merges changes that were developed in the "racket7" repo.
See that repo (which is no longer modified) for a more fine-grained
change history.
The commit includes experimental support for running Racket on Chez
Scheme, but that "CS" variant is not built by default.
Make the optimizer recognize and track `make-struct-property-type`
values, and use that information to recognize `make-struct-type`
calls that will defnitely succeed because a property that hs no
guard is given a value in the list of properties.
Combined with the change to require-keyword expansion, this
change allows the optimizer to inline `f` in
(define (g y)
(f #:x y))
(define (f #:x x)
(list x))
because the `make-struct-type` that appears between `g` and `f`
is determined to have no side-effect that would prevent `f` from
having its expected value.
Add 'module-body-inside-context, 'module-body-outside-context, and
'module-body-context-simple? properties to the expansion of a
`module` form. These properties expose scopes that are used by
`module->namespace` and taht appear in marshaled bytecode.
When `compile` is used on a top-level definition, do not
create a binding in the current namespace, but arrange for
a suitable binding to be in place for the target namespace.
Closes#1036
For GC purposes, if a "prefix" (a closure frame that caprues
top-level or module-level bindings) may refer to syntax objects
that are not used by any reachable closure, in which case the
syntax object can be dropped. This pruning of syntax objects
uses the infrastructure already in place to prune variables.
Syntax objects were not included in the original pruning
implementation, because they are unlikely to create
finalization cycles in the way that global-variable
references can. A syntax object can retain a namespace's
table of module imports, however, which can be substantial
and worth releasing of a closure is only held, say, for
a low-level finalization action.
