* Make function calls work for functions that return no value or returns multiple values.
* Some bytecode instructions take 3 operands. These should be optimized to operate directly on
the destination if the second or third operand is also the destination.
+* Align the instruction at the start of a function and the start of an expensive loop to 16-bytes. This improves performance
+and the block might even fit inside instruction cache.\
+From intel instruction manual:

+3.4.1.5 - Assembly/Compiler Coding Rule 12. (M impact, H generality)
+All branch targets should be 16-byte aligned.

+* Reduce the number of branches by making memory allocation/reallocation throw instead of returning error.
+* Implement pub for imports and show compile error when using non-pub symbols in pub closures/structs/etc.
