Optimization for 'n^2'

Squares are much more common than other exponentiations, and 'n*n' is
much more efficient than 'pow'.

Fixed bug of long strings in binary chunks

When "undumping" a long string, the function 'LoadVector' can call the
reader function, which can run the garbage collector, which can collect
the string being read. So, the string must be anchored during the call
to 'LoadVector'. (This commit also fixes the identation in 'l_alloc'.)
