Make set-magic handle vstrings properly
Assigning a vstring to a tied variable would result in a plain string in $_[1] in STORE. Assigning a vstring to a magic deferred element would result in a plain string in the aggregate’s actual element. When magic is invoked, the magic flags are temporarily turned off on the sv so that recursive calls to magic don’t happen. This makes it easier to implement functions like Perl_magic_set to read the value of the sv without triggering get-magic. Since vstrings are only considered vstrings when they are SvRMAGICAL, this meant that set-magic would turn vstrings temporarily into plain strings. Subsequent copying (e.g., in STORE) would then fail to copy the vstring magic. This commit changes mg_set to leave the rmagical flag on, since it does not affect the functionaiity of set-magic.
