Remove support for use experimental :collation (#4616)

It is now supported by default, and was marked to be deleted in 2019, so seems to have ample sunsetting time for this feature.

Add a IterationBuffer.new(iterable) candidate (#4599)

To facilitate initializing iteration buffers. Makes
   IterationBuffer.new(<a b c d e f g h i j>);
about 2x as fast as:
   my $b := IterationBuffer.new;
   $b.push($_) for <a b c d e f g h i j>;
   $b

Disallow cmp with a Junction (#4618)

Disallow comparing Junctions
There's no way to collapse them into a valid Order.

lizmat ugexe nine module precomp question 13:13
if I have module Foo installed
and working on module Bar, testing that with -Ilib or -I. , should it re-precompile module Foo in lib/.precomp / .precomp ? 13:14
if it shouldn't, then we have a problem here, because it looks like it does 13:29
I found out that after a Rakudo update, testing some module would fail because OO::Monitors would have a version mismatch 13:30
nuking the lib/.precomp dir solves that for me

vrurg lizmat: with regard to sort performance on junctions, it shouldn't be slower than the multi-dispatch we currently do on cmp. And it could be done with with `nqp::eqaddr` which must be cheaper than `istype`. 15:00

lizmat it's an extra check on *every* value that needs to be sorted, though 16:36

Make Date.new(year,month,day) about 40% faster

By reducing the error checking in the method itself as little as possible, and do the full awesome error generation in a separate private method. This brings !SET-SELF under the inlining limit, thus making it 40% faster. Alas, the subclass version did not reach that limit yet, so not a lot to be gained there.

Fix CATCH blocks setting $! leading to serialization errors with BEGIN time exceptions

According to the docs $! only ought to be set by try blocks or statement prefixes. CATCH blocks are supposed to only set $_ to the exception within the block. Setting $! is not just wasteful but doing so at BEGIN time may keep the exception referenced after being handled and prevent serialization.
