Remove hipe constants pool
Hipe constants used to be allocated within a single, fixed-size pool for
interaction with the garbage collector. However, the garbage collector
no longer depends on constants being allocated within a single pool, and
the fixed size of the pool both meant unnecessary allocations on most
deployments and crashes on deployments requiring more constants.
The code was simplified to directly invoke erts_alloc.
Debugging and undocumented function hipe_bifs:show_literals/0 was
removed (it returned true and output text to the console), and
debugging and undocumented function hipe_bifs:constants_size/0 was
rewritten with a global to count the size of allocated constants.
