Log message:
	* gc.c, gc.h, pairs.h, init.c: Implementation of a new way of
	allocating heap.  The basic idea is to trigger GC every Nth
	allocated cell and grow heap when free list runs out.  The scheme
	has been extended so that GC isn't triggered until all remaining
	cells are used.  The implementation is also prepared for
	development in the direction of POSIX threads.
	
	* gc.c (SCM_EXPHEAP): In order to grow by a factor of 1.5,
	SCM_EXPHEAP should return half of the heap size.
