Flags are not always bad. For example, as a function argument they allow
easier extension in the future. But with datatype's "flags" argument and
enum datatype_flags there are no advantages of this approach.
- replace DTYPE_F_PREFIX with a "bool f_prefix:1" field.
- replace DTYPE_F_ALLOC with a "bool f_alloc:1" field.
- the new boolean fields are made bitfields, although for the moment
that does not reduce the size of the struct. If we add more flags,
that will be different.
- also reorder fields in "struct datatype" so that fields of similar
alignment (and type) are beside each other. Specifically moving
"refcnt" field beside other integer fields saves one pointer size on
x86-64.

Avoid cloning static strings for "struct datatype". With
concat_type_alloc(), the name/desc are generated dynamically and need to
be allocated. However, datatype_clone() only reuses the original
name/desc strings. If those strings are static already, we don't need to
clone them.
Note that there are no other places that also want to change or set the
name/desc. If there were, they would need to handle the new fact that
the strings may or may not be dynamically allocated.

"struct datatype" instances are treated immutable and not changed after
creation. set_datatype_alloc() returns a const pointer, indicating that
the caller must not modify the instance anymore. In particular it must
not, because for non-integer types we just return a reference to the
(already immutable) orig_dtype.
If the byteorder that we are about to set is already as-requested, there
is no need to clone the instance either. Just return a reference to
orig_dtype() too.
Also drop the same optimization from key_fix_dtype_byteorder().

All remaining users of datatype_clone() only use this function to set
the byteorder and the size. Extend set_datatype_alloc() to not only
change the byteorder but also the size. With that, it can be used
instead of clone.
The benefit is that set_datatype_alloc() takes care to re-use the same
instance, if the values end up being the same.
Another benefit is to expose and make clear the oddity related to the
"for_any_integer" argument. The argument exists to preserve the previous
behavior. However, it's not clear why some places would only want to
change the values for &integer_type and some check for orig_dtype->type
== TYPE_INTEGER. This is possibly a bug, especially because it means
once you clone an &integer_type, you cannot change it's byteorder/size
again. So &integer_type is very special here, not only based on the
TYPE_INTEGER.
