Flexible limit for use of registers by constructors

Instead of a fixed limit of 50 registers (which, in a bad worst case,
can limit the nesting of constructors to 5 levels), the compiler
computes an individual limit for each constructor based on how many
registers are available when it runs. This limit then controls the
frequency of SETLIST instructions.
