41c45a9b31 * Store Value nodes outside of attribute sets. I.e., Attr now stores
a pointer to a Value, rather than the Value directly.  This improves
  the effectiveness of garbage collection a lot: if the Value is
  stored inside the set directly, then any live pointer to the Value
  causes all other attributes in the set to be live as well.

ac1e8f40d4 * Use a symbol table to represent identifiers and attribute names
efficiently.  The symbol table ensures that there is only one copy
  of each symbol, thus allowing symbols to be compared efficiently
  using a pointer equality test.
