bad things happened with for $x (...) { *x = *y }
fix for [perl #21469]: since the GP may be pulled from under us and freed, coredumps and strange things can happen. Fix this by storing a pointer to the GV in the loop block, rather than a pointer to the GvSV slot. The ITHREADS variant already stores GV rather than than &GvSV; extend this to non-threaded builds too. Also, for both threaded and non-threaded, it used to push &GvSV on the save stack. Fix this by introducing a new save type, SAVEt_GVSV. This behaves similarly to SAVEt_SV, but without magic get/set. This means that for $package_var (...) is now close in behaviour to local $package_var = ... (except for the magic bit).
