Turn misc objects into pseudovectors

Eliminate the category of miscellaneous objects, and turn all
such objects into pseudovectors.  The immediate motivation
for this change is to free up an enum Lisp_Type tag value, a
scarce resource that can be better used elsewhere.  However,
this change is worthwhile in its own right, as it improves
performance slightly on my platform, 0.3% faster for 'make
compile-always' on Fedora 28, and it simplifies the garbage
collector and interpreter (Bug#32405).
