Queues used for communication between async threads and scheduler threads
have been replaced with lock-free queues.
Drivers using the driver_async functionality are not automatically locked
to the system anymore, and can be unloaded as any dynamically linked in
driver.
Scheduling of ready async jobs is now also interleaved in between other
jobs. Previously all ready async jobs was performed at once.

All uses of the old deprecated atomic API in the runtime system
have been replaced with the use of the new atomic API. In a lot of
places this change imply a relaxation of memory barriers used.

The io_list_len() function returns an int, where a negative return
value indicates a type error. One problem is that an int only consists
of 32 bits in a 64-bit emulator. Changing the return type to Sint
will solve that problem, but in the 32-bit emulator, a large iolist
and a iolist with a type error will both return a negative number.
(Noticed by Jon Meredith.)
Another problem is that for iolists whose total size exceed the
word size, the result would be truncated, leading to a subsequent
buffer overflow and emulator crash.
Therefore, introduce the new erts_iolist_size() function which
returns a status indication and writes the result size through
a passed pointer. If the result size does not fit in a word,
return an overflow indication.

Also rename the fun_to_port/1 test case to outputv_errors/1 and
test sending more kinds of bad data to an outputv-enabled driver.

io_list_vec_len() is slightly more general than it needs to be.
Specifically:
* The only caller always passes ERL_SMALL_IO_BIN_LIMIT as the
value for the bin_limit parameter, so the bin_limit parameter
can be eliminated.
* The only caller never passes any NULL pointers, so there is
no need test the pointers before writing through them.

Existing %bp to print pointer size integers does not work in halfword
emulator to print Eterm size integers.

This will reduce the risk of integer wrapping in bin vheap counting.
The vheap size series will now use the golden ratio instead of doubling
and fibonacci sequences.

Merging the three off-heap lists (binaries, funs and externals) into
one list. This reduces memory consumption by two words (pointers) per
ETS object.

Port locks could be prematurely destroyed.

The driver in the wx application does monitoring (and
demonitoring) from non-scheduler threads. In the non-half-word
emulators, data will be modified without the protection of a
lock (which is potentially bad), but the half-word emulator will
crash in that situation.
While at it, also correct an old bug which make assertions
fail in the Kernel test suite.

Store Erlang terms in 32-bit entities on the heap, expanding the
pointers to 64-bit when needed. This works because all terms are stored
on addresses in the 32-bit address range (the 32 most significant bits
of pointers to term data are always 0).
Introduce a new datatype called UWord (along with its companion SWord),
which is an integer having the exact same size as the machine word
(a void *), but might be larger than Eterm/Uint.
Store code as machine words, as the instructions are pointers to
executable code which might reside outside the 32-bit address range.
Continuation pointers are stored on the 32-bit stack and hence must
point to addresses in the low range, which means that loaded beam code
much be placed in the low 32-bit address range (but, as said earlier,
the instructions themselves are full words).
No Erlang term data can be stored on C stacks (enforced by an
earlier commit).
This version gives a prompt, but test cases still fail (and dump core).
The loader (and emulator loop) has instruction packing disabled.
The main issues has been in rewriting loader and actual virtual
machine. Subsystems (like distribution) does not work yet.

This is the first step in the implementation of the half-word emulator,
a 64-bit emulator where all pointers to heap data will be stored
in 32-bit words. Code specific for this emulator variant is
conditionally compiled when the HALFWORD_HEAP define has
a non-zero value.
First force all pointers to heap data to fall into a single 32-bit range,
but still store them in 64-bit words.
Temporary term data stored on C stack is moved into scheduler specific
storage (allocated as heaps) and macros are added to make this
happen only in emulators where this is needed. For a vanilla VM the
temporary terms are still stored on the C stack.

Driver threads, such as async threads, using <seealso
marker="erl_driver#ErlDrvPDL">port data locks</seealso> peeked at the port
status field without proper locking when looking up the driver queue.

* egil/lcnt:
Add test suite for lcnt in tools
Add lcnt:rt_opt/1 bindings to erts_debug
Add runtime option to enable/disable lcnt stats
Add auto width on string output
Add lcnt documentation
Add lock profiling tool
OTP-8424 Add lock profiling tool.
The Lock profiling tool, lcnt, can make use of the internal lock
statistics when the runtime system is built with this feature
enabled.
This provides a mechanism to examine potential lock bottlenecks
within the runtime itself.
- Add erts_debug:lock_counters({copy_save, bool()}). This option
enables or disables statistics saving for destroyed processes and
ets-tables. Enabling this might consume a lot of memory.
- Add id-numbering for lock classes which is otherwise undefined.
