Optimize Speedy machine.ctrl (#5811)
Remove the `Ctrl` trait and separate `Machine.ctrl: Ctrl` into `Machine.ctrl: SExpr` and `Machine.returnValue: SValue` instead. This allows for avoiding dynamic dispatch on `ctrl` and instead allows for checking a pointer for `null` to decide if we have an expression that needs further break-down or a return value ready to be passed to the next continuation.

To make this check really only a pointer comparison we also needed to remove the abomination of "fully applied partially applied primitives". In order to achieve this, we check whether a PAP will be fully applied afterward when applying the last argument.

On the `collect-authority` benchmark, this increases throughput by around 13%, on another more computation heave benchmark by about 21%.
