interpret: do not force_allocate all return places

A while ago I cleaned up our `PlaceTy` a little, but as a side-effect of that, return places had to always be force-allocated. That turns out to cause quite a few extra allocations, and for a project we are doing where we marry Miri with a model checker, that means a lot of extra work -- local variables are just so much easier to reason about than allocations.

So, this PR brings back the ability to have the return place be just a local of the caller. To make this work cleanly I had to rework stack pop handling a bit, which also changes the output of Miri in some cases as the span for errors occurring during a particular phase of stack pop changed.

With these changes, a no-std binary with a function of functions that just take and return scalar types and that uses no pointers now does not move *any* local variables into memory. :)
