Machine code efficiency

Simple in principle, but it's not fun to have stubs for the whole plethora of return opcodes. :P

I'm thinking of adding an argument to destruct_objects_to_destruct so that the current object can be excluded. Maybe we can live with that it's freed a bit later instead. It's afterall not often that it's freed directly on function return anyway.

A simple workaround would be to replace

jsr F_RETURN
jmp %eax

with:

jmp static_return_stub

; Somewhere global return_stub: jsr F_RETURN jmp %eax
