This reduces the diff with upstream Ruby to just 2600 lines. In some cases I've 'broken' the indenting, so that blocks of otherwise unmodified code don't show up in the diff and don't cause merge conflicts, but I think it's still very readable.

With this in place we can continue to garden the code we have different from upstream to keep it as nice as possible.

When I removed the SizeQueue#push timeout from my PR, I forgot to
update the `queue_sleep` parameters to be a `queue_sleep_arg`.

Somehow this worked on most archs, but on Solaris/Sparc it would
legitimately crash when trying to access the `timeout` and `end`
members of the struct.

LGTM.

I also found some extra opportunities to further reduce the differences. I'll start another PR.

The MinGW CI test "failed" for "timeout", but from the log, I see all tests passed. It could be a false alarm.

Unfortunately we have to use a mock, but this test demonstrate the
mutation bug fixed in #19.

It fails on 0.2.0 but passes on 0.1.3 or 0.2.1.

[Bug #20921]

When we create a cache entry for a constant, the following sequence of
events could happen:

- vm_track_constant_cache is called to insert a constant cache.
- In vm_track_constant_cache, we first look up the ST table for the ID
  of the constant. Assume the ST table exists because another iseq also
  holds a cache entry for this ID.
- We then insert into this ST table with the iseq_inline_constant_cache.
- However, while inserting into this ST table, it allocates memory, which
  could trigger a GC. Assume that it does trigger a GC.
- The GC frees the one and only other iseq that holds a cache entry for
  this ID.
- In remove_from_constant_cache, it will appear that the ST table is now
  empty because there are no more iseq with cache entries for this ID, so
  we free the ST table.
- We complete GC and continue our st_insert. However, this ST table has
  been freed so we now have a use-after-free.

This issue is very hard to reproduce, because it requires that the GC runs
at a very specific time. However, we can make it show up by applying this
patch which runs GC right before the st_insert to mimic the st_insert
triggering a GC:

    diff --git a/vm_insnhelper.c b/vm_insnhelper.c
    index 3cb23f0..a93998136a 100644
    --- a/vm_insnhelper.c
    +++ b/vm_insnhelper.c
    @@ -6338,6 +6338,10 @@ vm_track_constant_cache(ID id, void *ic)
            rb_id_table_insert(const_cache, id, (VALUE)ics);
        }

    +    if (id == rb_intern("MyConstant")) rb_gc();
    +
        st_insert(ics, (st_data_t) ic, (st_data_t) Qtrue);
    }

And if we run this script:

    Object.const_set("MyConstant", "Hello!")

    my_proc = eval("-> { MyConstant }")
    my_proc.call

    my_proc = eval("-> { MyConstant }")
    my_proc.call

We can see that ASAN outputs a use-after-free error:

This commit fixes this bug by adding a inserting_constant_cache_id field
to the VM, which stores the ID that is currently being inserted and, in
remove_from_constant_cache, we don't free the ST table for ID equal to
this one.
