1556	Make inline files less expanded for the scrutinizer	megane		"In the following example take a look at the generated inline
definition for `foo` in module `mod`. The `(fixnum? x)` has been
turned into `(##core#inline (""C_fixnump"") (##core#variable (x18)))`.

Now take a look at the two calls to `foo` in `main.scm`. If the
original definition of `foo` was inlined at the call sites the
scrutinizer could resolve the result statically in both cases. That is
`(foo 42)` inlined as `(if (fixnum? 42) 'fixnum 'not-fixnum)` could be
optimized to just `'fixnum`. This is something the scrutinizer already
can do.

The scrutinizer does not, however, know anything about the type of
`(##core#inline (""C_fixnump"") (##core#variable (x18)))`, or any
`##core#inline` form for that matter (AFAIK). Therefore it cannot
optimize the predicate calls with the generated inline definition. You
can see that the predicate calls are indeed present in the optimized
expression tree of the compiled program.
