[perl #96126] Allocate CvFILE more simply
See the thread starting at: http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perl5.porters/2011/07/msg175161.html Instead of assuming that only Perl subs have mallocked CvFILEs and only under threads, resulting in various hackery to borrow parts of the SvPVX buffer where that assumption proves wrong, we can simply add another flag (DYNFILE) to indicate whether CvFILE is mallocked, instead of trying to use the ISXSUB flag for two purposes. This simplifies the code greatly, eliminating bug #96126 in the pro- cess (which had to do with sv_dup not knowing about the hackery that this commit removes). I removed that comment from cv_ckproto_len about CONSTSUBs doubling up the buffer field, as it is no longer relevant. But I still left the code as it is, since it’s better to do an explicit length check.
