Improve performance of upgrade when many processes have old code
This commit utilizes the new bif erlang:check_old_code/1 to check if a module has old code in the system or not before running erlang:check_process_code/2. This is to optimize release_handler:install_release (and release_handler:check_install_release). A new test is added which checks that after traversing all processes/modules once and purging all old code, the second run through this part of the code is "sufficiently" much faster. A note is also added in the reference manual for release_handler:install_release about how to go around the efficiency problem of this function.
