6068da8937 Finer-grained constant cache invalidation (take 2)
This commit reintroduces finer-grained constant cache invalidation.
After 8008fb7 got merged, it was causing issues on token-threaded
builds (such as on Windows).

The issue was that when you're iterating through instruction sequences
and using the translator functions to get back the instruction structs,
you're either using `rb_vm_insn_null_translator` or
`rb_vm_insn_addr2insn2` depending if it's a direct-threading build.
`rb_vm_insn_addr2insn2` does some normalization to always return to
you the non-trace version of whatever instruction you're looking at.
`rb_vm_insn_null_translator` does not do that normalization.

This means that when you're looping through the instructions if you're
trying to do an opcode comparison, it can change depending on the type
of threading that you're using. This can be very confusing. So, this
commit creates a new translator function
`rb_vm_insn_normalizing_translator` to always return the non-trace
version so that opcode comparisons don't have to worry about different
configurations.

629908586b Finer-grained inline constant cache invalidation
Current behavior - caches depend on a global counter. All constant mutations cause caches to be invalidated.

```ruby
class A
  B = 1
end

def foo
  A::B # inline cache depends on global counter
end

foo # populate inline cache
foo # hit inline cache

C = 1 # global counter increments, all caches are invalidated

foo # misses inline cache due to `C = 1`
```

Proposed behavior - caches depend on name components. Only constant mutations with corresponding names will invalidate the cache.

```ruby
class A
  B = 1
end

def foo
  A::B # inline cache depends constants named "A" and "B"
end

foo # populate inline cache
foo # hit inline cache

C = 1 # caches that depend on the name "C" are invalidated

foo # hits inline cache because IC only depends on "A" and "B"
```

Examples of breaking the new cache:

```ruby
module C
  # Breaks `foo` cache because "A" constant is set and the cache in foo depends
  # on "A" and "B"
  class A; end
end

B = 1
```

We expect the new cache scheme to be invalidated less often because names aren't frequently reused. With the cache being invalidated less, we can rely on its stability more to keep our constant references fast and reduce the need to throw away generated code in YJIT.

Mark rb_clear_constant_cache as internal use only
In the past, many internal functions are declared in intern.h
under include/ruby directory, because there were no headers for
internal use.

b0d6563f13 rb_clear_method_cache_by_class: no longer exist
It is questionable whether we can change a public API but this function
does not exist today.  No way.
