Emit & read more compressed bytecode by not emitting a bytecodeblock for

each basic block in function.  Instead, just emit a stream of instructions,
chopping up basic blocks based on when we find terminator instructions.  This
saves a fairly substantial chunk of bytecode space.  In stripped, sample
cases, for example, we get this reduction in size:

197.parser: 163036 -> 137180:  18.8% reduction
254.gap   : 844936 -> 689392:  22.6%
255.vortex: 621724 -> 528444:  17.7%

...

Not bad for something this simple.  :)  Note that this doesn't require a new
bytecode version number at all, though version 1.1 should not need to support
the old format.
