Add a write barrier for TVAR closures
This improves GC performance when there are a lot of TVars in the heap. For instance, a TChan with a lot of elements causes a massive GC drag without this patch. There's more to do - several other STM closure types don't have write barriers, so GC performance when there are a lot of threads blocked on STM isn't great. But fixing the problem for TVar is a good start.
