The inline half of a class or record release sent NULL, last and
immortal references to the out-of-line slow release. Static literals
were the only immortal objects then; a published graph is released as
often as ordinary objects (tsc-ts checking a published program spent
more time in the no-op calls of Node releases than in any checker
function). The rarely taken branch now tests for immortal first; the
common decrement path is unchanged.
