Make sure the transient heap is in the right mode when we finish warming
the heap. Also ensure the GC isn't allowed to run while we iterate and
mutate the heap.
[Feature #18885]
For now, the optimizations performed are:
- Run a major GC
- Compact the heap
- Promote all surviving objects to oldgen
Other optimizations may follow.
[Bug #19575]
struct vtm is packed causing it to have a size that is not aligned on
32-bit systems. When allocating it on the stack, it will have unaligned
addresses which means that the fields won't be marked by the GC when
scanning the stack (since the GC only marks aligned addresses). This can
cause crashes when the fields are heap allocated objects like Bignums.
This commit moves the flags in struct time_object into struct vtm for
space efficiency and removes the need for packing.
This is an example of a crash:

```
The mechanism:
* Main thread (M) calls `Thread#join`
* M: calls `sleep_forever()`
* M: set `th->status = THREAD_STOPPED_FOREVER`
* M: do `checkints`
* M: handle a trap handler with `th->status = THREAD_RUNNABLE`
* M: thread switch at the end of the trap handler
* Another thread (T) will process `Thread#kill` by M.
* T: `rb_threadptr_join_list_wakeup()` at the end of T tris to wakeup M,
but M's state is runnable because M is handling trap handler and
just ignore the waking up and terminate T$a
* T: switch to M.
* M: after the trap handler, reset `th->status = THREAD_STOPPED_FOREVER`
and check deadlock -> Deadlock because only M is living.
To avoid such situation, add new sleep flags `SLEEP_ALLOW_SPURIOUS`
and `SLEEP_NO_CHECKINTS` to skip any check ints.
BTW this is instentional to leave second `vm_check_ints_blocking()`
without checking `SLEEP_NO_CHECKINTS` because `SLEEP_ALLOW_SPURIOUS`
should be specified with `SLEEP_NO_CHECKINTS` and skipping this
checkints can skip any interrupts.
This fails on RubyCI due to RJIT warnings too often. It should be enough
to test RJIT feature in test_rjit_version. We only want warnings instead
of test failures when there are warnings, at least for this case.
