[ruby-core:95404] [Ruby master Feature#16245] Add interfaces to count and measure size all IMEMO objects

Issue #16245 has been updated by sam.saffron (Sam Saffron).


Yes! 

ObjectSpace.memsize_of_imemo_objects sounds perfect to me. 

I also support adding `ObjectSpace.each_iseq` which seems the simplest way to get iteration working. 

I get the concern about not wanting to pollute MRI with MRI specific logic directly in ObjectSpace, but given we already have ObjectSpace.count_imemo_objects it feels a bit too late for this case.

----------------------------------------
Koichi introduced an experimental gem: https://github.com/ko1/iseq_collector

It allows:

ObjectSpace.each_iseq{|iseq| ...}
ObjectSpace.count_iseq #=> Integer
ObjectSpace.memsize_of_all_iseq (should not generate RubyVM::InstructionSequence wrappers for IMEMOs)

Since the wrapper object  RubyVM::InstructionSequence is lazily allocated, ObjectSpace.each_object does not find these IMEMOs unless they have been wrapped. This design is good and conserves memory. 

`count_iseq` and `memsize_of_all_iseq` are very powerful metrics most large Ruby deployments can use to automatically detect method leaks introduced via meta programming. These issues are invisible now short of walking a heap dump. 

Can we add the new interface into 2.7?
