The binary sizes (gems are only `mruby-bin-mruby`) are reduced slightly in
my environment than before the introduction of new specifiers/modifiers
(5116789a) with this change.

BTW, I accidentally changed `tasks/toolchains/visualcpp.rake` at #4613,
so I put it back.
The addresses for packed inline symbols reference `mrb->symbuf` that
could be overridden by the later call of `mrb_sym2name_len`. Since
file names in call stack information are kept as symbols, keeping the
address in the C structures could cause problems like #4342.
This changes small incompatible changes in function prototypes:
* `mrb_parser_get_filename`: return value changed to `mrb_sym`.
* `mrb_debug_get_filename`: add `mrb_state*` as a first argument.
* `mrb_debug_get_line`: ditto.
I believe above functions are almost internal, and no third-party
mrbgem use them.
- Move calling `mrb_debug_get_filename()` to after `lineno` check.
- Remove unneeded array check in `print_backtrace()`.
- Add a few `const` qualifier.
Instead of preserving a backtrace in `mrb_state`, `mrb_exc_set`
keeps packed backtrace in an exception object. `#backtrace` unpacks
it to an array of strings.
It looks like the logic to reallocate the backtrace was flawed,
based on the wrong variable (loc_raw->i, which, as I have verified,
decreases from 16 to 0 instead of increasing)
I am not sure if this is the correct fix
The code to iterate over backtrace locations was changed in #3065, but
unfortunately output_backtrace was not correctly updated to forward the
callback.
GitHub: fix#2902, #2917
The current implementation traverses stack to retrieve backtrace. But
stack will be changed when some operations are occurred. It means that
backtrace may be broken after some operations.
This change (1) saves the minimum information to retrieve backtrace when
exception is raised and (2) restores backtrace from the minimum
information when backtrace is needed. It reduces overhead for creating
backtrace Ruby objects.
The space for the minimum information is reused by multiple
exceptions. So memory allocation isn't occurred for each exception.
