Don't compose again if already composed

Since NQP doesn't have augment, having something composed means you don't ever need to do it again. So check at the start of the compose whether it was done already, and agai check inside the protected blocks whether another thread did the compose while the current thread was waiting for access to the block.

Remove pre-protect block composed checks

Since race connditions *are* rare, 99% of the cases the pre-protect block test will fail anyway, so don't add this overhead to the most common program flow.

Bump NQP to get latest compose check tweaks

Also relax the signature on some (legacy) internals methods that would now cause test breakage because apparently some legacy grammar object seeped in. Since this happens in the legacy grammar only, not spending more time on it at this point in time.

Make the positional on "method_table" optional

And change all of the calls to "method_table" to not pass any positional argument.
This reduces the footprint of these calls. This is possible because the positional argument was only there to allow for
  .^method calls to work from Raku (as far as I can see).
And since this method (as many others) only looks at attributes of the invocant, this will not break any code.

Make the positional on "role_typecheck_list" optional
nqp/main: 1131e1d1ba | (Elizabeth Mattijsen)++ | src/how/NQPClassHOW.nqp
Simplify MRO fetching

Since the positional on .mro is ignored, self.mro($foo) is just a long way to say $!mro. So use the shortcut instead.

MasterDuke lizmat: you're probably aware, but rakudo needs a couple methods to have their signature changed to be an optional argument (at least `role_typecheck_list`) 20:22
tellable6 2024-02-16T13:52:03Z #raku-dev <[Coke]> masterduke I'd get rid of "really", and just ask "did you mean"
lizmat MasterDuke: I'm just working on NQP at the moment... the HOWs in Raku will come later 20:23
MasterDuke yeah, i just pulled nqp and tried to build rakudo, i'll backup a couple commits in nqp 20:24
lizmat ah, I borked Rakudo? 20:28
hmmm that shouldn't have happened... I'll check
MasterDuke: ahh I see what happened... this is NQP HOW calling Raku HOW ... interesting, ok... lemme see what would be the best solution 20:33
Geth nqp/main: 05e593fb5b | (Elizabeth Mattijsen)++ | 7 files
Revert the making positionals optional

This needs to be done in the Raku metamodel first
20:41
lizmat MasterDuke ^^ 20:42
MasterDuke ++lizmat
lizmat I'll bump MoarVM in NQP momentarily in NQP, ok MasterDuke? 20:44
MasterDuke sure 20:45

lizmat and that concludes my hacking for today& 21:16
MasterDuke lizmat: nice. and if you want a question for tomorrow, why here (github.com/rakudo/rakudo/blob/main....nqp#L288) does `$expected.HOW.name($expected)` eq 'Positional', but `nqp::istype($expected, Positional)` != 1? my test code is `class A { method a(@b) { dd @b } }; A.new.a(1)` 21:24
