implemented jump table dispatch

- currently only enabled on supported platforms (GNU C Compiler + Clang)
- when enabled, sped up examples/fibtest.cosmo by about 20% (avg of 11.179s prior and 8.799 after)

NOTE: malicious dumps can trivially cause crashes now by having junk function chunks

cause a seg fault!). It is recommended to keep this enabled.

if undefined, the interpreter will use a tagged union to store values. This is the default.
Note that even though the sizeof(CValue) is 8 bytes for NAN_BOXXED (as opposed to 16 bytes for
the tagged union) no performance benefits were measured. I recommend keeping this undefined for
now.

if we're using GNUC or clang, we can use computed gotos which speeds up

your compiler supports computed gotos, you can define VM_JUMPTABLE
BTW: be weary of maliciously crafted cosmo dumps!! it's very easy to crash
cosmo with this enabled and reading invalid opcodes due to us just using the
opcode as an index into the jump table
