instructions of funs lacking an environment into literals was lost during the pre-JIT refactoring of the loader, as creation of fun entries was now (rightly) deferred until the very last stages of module loading.This commit restores that optimization by creating placeholders in the form of external funs, which are then converted to local funs during the last stages of module loading.
