By moving the two bools into a packing gap above the mark_bits
pointer/union we can save 8 bytes in the struct and avoid an extra cache
line (328 bytes vs 320 bytes).

access properly. Because the libclang node had two children, it wasn't
handled well by the pattern matching for the bit field case.
In addition to that, this bit field has a non-1 width. Because we're
returning true/false for a width-1 bit field, I added another behavior
that works like a char value for bit fields with width 2-8.
This commit adds a `capacity` field to shapes, and adds shape
transitions whenever an object's capacity changes. Objects which are
allocated out of a bigger size pool will also make a transition from the
root shape to the shape with the correct capacity for their size pool
when they are allocated.
This commit will allow us to remove numiv from objects completely, and
will also mean we can guarantee that if two objects share shapes, their
IVs are in the same positions (an embedded and extended object cannot
share shapes). This will enable us to implement ivar sets in YJIT using
object shapes.

`iv_count` is a misleading name because when IVs are unset, the new
shape doesn't decrement this value. `next_iv_count` is an accurate, and
more descriptive name.
Prior to this commit, we were reading and writing ivar index and
shape ID in inline caches in two separate instructions when
getting and setting ivars. This meant there was a race condition
with ractors and these caches where one ractor could change
a value in the cache while another was still reading from it.
This commit instead reads and writes shape ID and ivar index to
inline caches atomically so there is no longer a race condition.

Object Shapes is used for accessing instance variables and representing the
"frozenness" of objects. Object instances have a "shape" and the shape
represents some attributes of the object (currently which instance variables are
set and the "frozenness"). Shapes form a tree data structure, and when a new
instance variable is set on an object, that object "transitions" to a new shape
in the shape tree. Each shape has an ID that is used for caching. The shape
structure is independent of class, so objects of different types can have the
same shape.
For example:
```ruby
class Foo
def initialize
# Starts with shape id 0
@a = 1 # transitions to shape id 1
@b = 1 # transitions to shape id 2
end
end
class Bar
def initialize
# Starts with shape id 0
@a = 1 # transitions to shape id 1
@b = 1 # transitions to shape id 2
end
end
foo = Foo.new # `foo` has shape id 2
bar = Bar.new # `bar` has shape id 2
```
Both `foo` and `bar` instances have the same shape because they both set
instance variables of the same name in the same order.
This technique can help to improve inline cache hits as well as generate more
efficient machine code in JIT compilers.
This commit also adds some methods for debugging shapes on objects. See
`RubyVM::Shape` for more details.

except for bit fields.
I made a risky assumption on leading bit fields and just gave up
non-leading bit fields for now. I'll change it to let C code access bit
fields later.
