In the VM's Kernel representation, introduce wrapper classes for
string and name indexes so it is obvious which one is which. For
convenience there is an implicit conversion so that they can each be
used where an int is allowed. However, there is no implicit
conversion _to_ either of these types.

The canonical name table is copied into a typed data array in the VM's
heap. The encoding is the same as in the binary except that the
integer indexes are fixed-size.
Canonical names are now integer indexes instead of objects allocated
in the C++ heap.

Copy the Kernel string offsets into a uint32 array in the VM's heap.
This avoids allocating small string objects with new and avoids having
a table of the canonical strings.
Instead of an offset and a size, strings are now represented as
indexes into the string table in the heap. The start offset of string
N is found at byte offset N*4 because it is a uint32, and the end
offset is found at byte offset (N+1)*4. The strings themselves are
just integer indexes instead of pointers.
In the stream flow graph builder, string access is all random access.

- Instead of a pointer to new'd memory, Kernel strings now have an
offset from the start of the string data.
- When the streaming reader encounters the string data it records the
offset from the start of the binary. This offset is stored in the
Kernel Program and is used to compute the offset for strings.
- When a KernelReader is constructed, the string data is copied into a
Uint8 array in the VM's heap.
- A pointer to the string data is put into every Kernel script so it
can be used for constructing VM strings at compile time.
The source table does not use Kernel strings any more because those
strings are not found in the raw string data. Instead, the source
table uses new'd buffers for strings (but this will be cleaned up
separately).
