Hi,

Instead of using `Arena::move_contents` we can just see the arena swap as a form of double buffering, reducing this to a pointer swap and a clear. This allows us to remove `Arena::move_contents`, cleaning up the arena code.

Since this requires allocating another pointer for `Compile`, I took the time to move some members around in order to reduce the padding. This means that this patch does *not* introduce a size change for `Compile`.

I'm currently running tier1-3 tests.

Thanks for considering this,
Johan
