Rewrote value storage and implemented class instantiation

* Probably not the last time.
  * Object-like things (functions, classes, etc...) are stored as
    ref-counted cells.
  * Separate data structure for native functions.
  * with_callable() method on value to run specific code on objects
    that are callable
  * Instance type added.
  * Instance construction implemented
