nucleus: introduce a table with early symbols ecl_symbols
...
This table contains symbols that are essential to the core runtime: ECL_T,
ECL_UNBOUND, ECL_SIGNAL_HANDLERS, ECL_RESTART_CLUSTERs, ECL_INTERRUPTS_ENABLED,
ECL_ALLOW_OTHER_KEYS and ECL_UNBOUND.
The table is initialized with constexpr, so it is possible to use its elements
in static elements. We also add ecl_def_function to ecl-inl to allow
appropriating C functions into Lisp world at top level.

In that case we use a dummy object nogc.o that contains stubs for GC-related
functions. It also defines a substitute module.

modules: [1/n] introduce ecl_module_gc
...
We also remove conditionalization for garbage collector inclusion in autotools.
When we propose an alternative gc, then we may decide to put them back, or to
add necessary ifdef statements directly in files.
Moreover untangle c-stack from the gc code and assign the stack base with a
rough guess only when it is not initialized yet (GC will always fill it).
Finally remove a kludge from ecl_adopt_cpu and disable colleciton until the cpu
is fully initialized.

signals: define *SIGNAL-HANDLERS* in cold_boot
...
I've also renamed *HANDLER-CLUSTERS* to a more appropriate *SIGNAL-HANDLERS*.
Currently this symbol is imported to the SYSTEM package, although this may be
revised in the future to cater to multiple global environments. Alternatively
the SYSTEM package may be common to all runtimes.

signals: rewrite signal handling to use functions and not lists
...
Instead of storing lists in *HANDLER-CLUSTERS*, we define functions that are
called unconditionally on the handler. HANDLER-BIND defines that function to be
a typecase that is dispatched based on the conditiont type, as specified by CL.
This change will aid further refactor.

this way we don't rely on a dynamic variable in a low-level function.
