This commit creates a finalisation thread in the GC_INIT() routine. The thread spins indefinitely waiting to process objects in the finaliser buffers.
This commit also makes sure that once an object has been finalised, its finalised bit is set so that it is not re-added to the buffer the next time it becomes unreachable.
