Honor the max heap size when copying literals after purging
When a module has been purged from memory, any literals belonging to that module will be copied to all processes that hold references to them. The max heap size limit would be ignored in the garbage collection initiated when copying literals to a process. If the max heap size was exceeded, the process would typically be terminated in the following garbage collection. Since the process would be killed anyway later, kill the process before copying a literal that would make it exceed its max heap size. While at it, also fix a potential bug in `erlang:garbage_collect/0`. If it was found that the max heap sized had been exceeded while executing `erlang:garbage_collect/0`, the process would enter a kind of zombie state instead of being properly terminated.
