bug#32405: Turning misc objects into pseudovectors

Pseudovectors do have size-segregated allocation; see the vector_free_lists 
array. Although it's not as fancy as Linux's SLAB, I hope it's enough for Emacs; 
if not we could of course make it fancier.

To some extent the point of this change is that we don't need a separate 
Lisp_Object tag in order to have size-segregated allocation, since pseudovectors 
already do that.

That's what I measured with 'make compile-always', yes. Of course this is just 
one benchmark. (My original intuition was that nobody would notice the 
difference....)

On a 64-bit platform the heap size of markers does not grow. The old size is 6 
words (sizeof (union aligned_Lisp_Misc) is 48), and the new size is also 6 words 
(sizeof (struct Lisp_Marker) is also 48).
