Iterating through all image objects

[Brian Rice]

This feature that I mentioned is now implemented in a simple way in the 
cvs code tree, but alpha VMs/images have not been uploaded as using it 
is very crash-prone. Userland code for it is in 
src/mobius/vm/interp/memory.slate and provides an "Image reader" 
iterator as well as a #childStream method for all objects. There's also 
a tentative stream for objects referring to a target object.

Including this feature in builds should not cause issues if you are not 
using it, but be aware that using it will eventually cause bad crashes 
for now.
