ARC: cycle detector (#12823)

* first implementation of the =trace and =dispose hooks for the cycle collector
* a cycle collector for ARC: progress
* manual: the .acyclic pragma is a thing once again
* gcbench: adaptations for --gc:arc
* enable valgrind tests for the strutils tests
* testament: better valgrind support
* ARC refactoring: growable jumpstacks
* ARC cycle detector: non-recursive algorithm
* moved and renamed core/ files back to system/
* refactoring: --gc:arc vs --gc:orc since 'orc' is even more experimental and we want to ship --gc:arc soonish

#[
In this new runtime we simplify the object layouts a bit: The runtime type
information is only accessed for the objects that have it and it's always
at offset 0 then. The ``ref`` object header is independent from the
runtime type and only contains a reference count.
Object subtyping is checked via the generated 'name'. This should have
comparable overhead to the old pointer chasing approach but has the benefit
that it works across DLL boundaries.
The generated name is a concatenation of the object names in the hierarchy
so that a subtype check becomes a substring check. For example::
type
ObjectA = object of RootObj
ObjectB = object of ObjectA
ObjectA's ``name`` is "|ObjectA|RootObj|".
ObjectB's ``name`` is "|ObjectB|ObjectA|RootObj|".
Now to check for ``x of ObjectB`` we need to check
for ``x.typ.name.hasSubstring("|ObjectB|")``. In the actual implementation,
however, we could also use a
hash of ``package & "." & module & "." & name`` to save space.
