Chris Tate d3dda8271d Leave the main thread's heap to the operating system at exit
When the main thread's script ends, the executable released every module
global and ran a full cycle collection before exiting, which takes time
proportional to everything the program still holds (about 15 ms for
1.5 million live objects) and frees memory the operating system reclaims
anyway. The main thread now skips those releases, the exit-time
collection and the collector's buffer cleanup. Exit listeners and output
flushing run as before. Worker threads still free their heaps when they
exit, since later threads reuse their arenas, and builds that check for
leaks (the RC audit, AddressSanitizer) free everything as before, as does
any process run with SCRIPTC_EXIT_FREE=1 for external leak checkers.

SCRIPTC_WORKER_STATS=1 reports, as each worker thread exits, how long it
took to start, to run its script and to exit.
