Based on discussion around the region handling in generic_region_stack,
create a generic structure for the stack-of-vectors support. I also want
to add this to InstBlockStack, but that's a little more complex due to
GlobalInit, so cutting a PR here to check with review.
My work here is how I noticed #4099; I want to be sure that I'm correct
about the issue, but it's the difference between being able to use
PeekArray or not.
Note in scope_stack.h, I believe we could remove next_compile_time_index
and make it just based on elements_size(). However, I want to verify
with you before I make further changes there.

When checking a declaration or definition of a generic, track a list of
created instructions that depend on the generic's parameters in some
way, along with information on how they depend on the parameters. This
will eventually be used to determine what information we need to compute
when creating instances of the generic, but for now we're just building
the list.
Information is tracked separately for the declaration region and the
definition region of the generic, because in general these may be first
provided in separate declarations, and they should be substituted into
at different times.
