Reserve bit 7 to remember that a pr-debug callsite is/was: - enabled, with +p - wants a dynamic-prefix, with one+ of module:function:sourcfile - was previously called - was thus saved in the cache. NOT YET. Its unclear whether any cache fetch would be faster than 2-3 field fetches, but theres another factor; the 3 columns in the __dyndbg section are highly redundant and compressible, but to get the compression, we need field accessors, which will rebalance the tradeoff. So, for now, its just the bit reservation.
