CogVM binaries as per VMMaker.oscog-eem.333/r2776

* Speed-up Newspeak significantly (e.g. -28% in one compile-intensive
benchmark)
by maintaining unpaired methods (compilations of anonymous accessors) on a
linked list instead of searching the entire method zone.

* Make primitiveObjectAtPut fail if changing the header word and the
new header has a different literal count.  Avoids crashing the VM
when inadvertently changing the header, as a Newspeak bootstrap
did recently.

* Implement frameless inst var store from arguments, so e.g.
Point>>setX:Y: is frameless.

* Add Cogit support for clean blocks by scanning literals looking for
BlockClosures on the current method.
