/* Procedure-with-setter

   Four representations for procedure-with-setters were
   considered before selecting this one:

   1. A closure where the CODE and ENV slots are used to represent
   the getter and a new SETTER slot is used for the setter.  The
   original getter is stored as a `getter' procedure property.  For
   closure getters, the CODE and ENV slots contains a copy of the
   getter's CODE and ENV slots.  For subr getters, the CODE contains
   a call to the subr.

   2. A compiled closure with a call to the getter in the cclo
   procedure.  The getter and setter are stored in slots 1 and 2.

   3. An entity (i.e. a struct with an associated procedure) with a
   call to the getter in the entity procedure and the setter stored
   in slot 0.  The original getter is stored in slot 1.

   4. A new primitive procedure type supported in the evaluator.  The
   getter and setter are stored in a GETTER and SETTER slot.  A call
   to this procedure type results in a retrieval of the getter and a
   jump back to the correct eval dispatcher.

   Representation 4 was selected because of efficiency and
   simplicity.

   Rep 1 has the advantage that there is zero penalty for closure
   getters, but primitive getters will get considerable overhead
   because the procedure-with-getter will be a closure which calls
   the getter.

   Rep 3 has the advantage that a GOOPS accessor can be a subclass of
   <procedure-with-setter>, but together with rep 2 it suffers from a
   three level dispatch for non-GOOPS getters:

     cclo/struct --> dispatch proc --> getter

   This is because the dispatch procedure must take an extra initial
   argument (cclo for rep 2, struct for rep 3).

   Rep 4 has the single disadvantage that it uses up one tc7 type
   code, but the plan for uniform vectors will very likely free tc7
   codes, so this is probably no big problem.  Also note that the
   GETTER and SETTER slots can live directly on the heap, using the
   new four-word cells.  */
