compiler: bug: diagnose excess args from apply list.

When we compile an immediately applied lambda like
(apply (lambda (a b c) ...) list), we are not emitting code to
handle the run-time situation when there are too many elements
in the list.  This shows up in exception handling, for
instance; the compiled version of this executes silently and
returns 42:

  (catch (throw 'foo 5) (foo () 42)))

foo is must have a parameter to capture the 5; interpreted
code enforces this.

* stdlib/compiler.tl (lambda-apply-transform): In the
apply-list case, at the end of binding all the optional
arguments, if the parameter list doesn't have a rest
parameter to take any remaining items, we emit code to check
that there aren't any; that everything has been popped out of
the apply list, leaving it nil. If not, we call the
run-time support function lambda-excess-apply-list.

* stdlib/error.tl (lambda-excess-apply-list): New function.
