Add a compacting garbage collector. It isn't enabled by default, as there are still a couple of problems: there's a fallback case I haven't implemented yet which means it will occasionally bomb out, and speed-wise it's quite a bit slower than the copying collector (about 1.8x slower). Until I can make it go faster, it'll only be useful when you're actually running low on real memory. '+RTS -c' to enable it. Oh, and I cleaned up a few things in the RTS while I was there, and fixed one or two possibly real bugs in the existing GC.
