CHICKEN 5 Libraries Reorganization

This is a summary of work that has been done for CHICKEN 5.0.

The queues, memory-mapped-files, binary-search, scan-input-lines, group-information and object-evict features have been evicted (heh) from core and into eggs (see #1142), along with srfi-1, srfi-13, srfi-14, srfi-18, and srfi-69.

Remaining Tasks

To make CHICKEN fully modular, these have to find a home under one of the above namespaces. This may be done in a future version.

##sys#slot, ##sys#setslot, ##sys#setislot
rename to

unsafe-block-ref, unsafe-block-set! and unsafe-block-set-immediate! and move under (chicken memory ???) where block-ref and block-set! are?
