#757: provide ##core#inline-routines for cheap SRFI-4 vector primitives

     Type:  enhancement  |      Status:  new  
 Priority:  minor        |   Milestone:       
Component:  compiler     |     Version:  4.7.x
 Keywords:               |  
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 `XXXvector-length`, `XXXvector-ref` and `XXXvector-set!` would be much
 more efficient if routines callable via `##core#inline[_allocate]` would
 be available for them (just as it currently is for, say, `vector-ref`).
 Since the structure-tag is not available in the C runtime, it has to be
 explicitly passed, e.g.

 {{{
 C_word C_i_XXXvector_ref(C_word tag, C_word vec, C_word index);
 C_word C_i_XXXvector_set(C_word tag, C_word vec, C_word index, C_word x);
 C_word C_i_XXXvector_length(C_word tag, C_word vec);
 }}}
