Change the subtag used for maps from 0xB to 0xF
The subtag chosen for maps breaks crucial assumptions in other parts of
the system, in particular the native code generation scheme used in the
HiPE compiler. Therefore it is better to use 'the other' unused subtag.
The main change here is the use of 0xF subtag for maps instead of 0xB.
The rest of the differences are changes to and additions of comments.
One more comment from my part.
I noticed that the file contains the following two lines:
The comment of the second line is most certainly a copy and paste error
and should be appropriately fixed by the OTP developers. More importantly,
it would be great if that subtag (0x7) turned out to be unused and could
be used for maps instead of the 0xF one. This might turn out very handy
in the future. I can elaborate on this, if needed.
