Previously, when an object is first initialized, ROBJECT_EMBED isn't set. This means that for brand new objects, ROBJECT_NUMIV(obj) is 0 and ROBJECT_IV_INDEX_TBL(obj) is NULL. Previously, this combination meant that the inline cache would never be initialized when setting an ivar on an object for the first time since iv_index_tbl was NULL, and if it were it would never be used because ROBJECT_NUMIV was 0. Both cases always fell through to the generic rb_ivar_set which would then set the ROBJECT_EMBED flag and initialize the ivar array. This commit changes rb_class_allocate_instance to set the ROBJECT_EMBED flag on the object initially and to initialize all members of the embedded array to Qundef. This allows the inline cache to be set correctly on first use and to be used on future uses. This moves rb_class_allocate_instance to gc.c, so that it has access to newobj_of. This seems appropriate given that there are other allocating methods in this file (ex. rb_data_object_wrap, rb_imemo_new).
