Reviving HARDMEMTESTS

This commit brings a new implementation for HARDMEMTESTS, which forces
an emergency GC whenever possible. It also fixes some issues detected
with this option:
  - A small bug in lvm.c: a closure could be collected by an emergency
  GC while being initialized.
  - Some tests: a memory address can be immediatly reused after a GC;
  for instance, two consecutive '{}' expressions can return exactly the
  same address, if the first one is not anchored.
