Move all data for a single generation into a structure.  The set of
generations is now an array.  This cleans up some code and makes it easy
to change the number of generations.  Also, implemented a
gc_list_is_empty() function.  This makes the logic a little clearer in
places.  The performance impact of these changes should be negligible.

One functional change is that allocation/collection counters are always
zeroed at the start of a collection.  This should fix SF bug #551915.
This change is too big for back-porting but the minimal patch on SF
looks good for a bugfix release.
