Fix #5127 Memory corruption with the VM
The bytecode interpreter ensures that the stack space available at some points is above a static threshold. However, arbitrary large stack space can be needed between two check points, leading to segmentation faults in some cases. We track the use of stack space at compilation time and add an instruction to ensure greater stack capacity when required. This is inspired from OCaml's PR#339 and PR#7168. Patch written with Benjamin Grégoire.
