runtime: fix bitmap copying corner-cases

When an object spans heap arenas, its bitmap is discontiguous, so
heapBitsSetType unrolls the bitmap into the object itself and then
copies it out to the real heap bitmap. Unfortunately, since this code
path is rare, it had two unnoticed bugs related to the head and tail
of the bitmap:

1. At the head of the object, we were using hbitp as the destination
bitmap pointer rather than h.bitp, but hbitp points into the
*temporary* bitmap space (that is, the object itself), so we were
failing to copy the partial bitmap byte at the head of an object.

2. The core copying loop copied all of the full bitmap bytes, but
always drove the remaining word count down to 0, even if there was a
partial bitmap byte for the tail of the object. As a result, we never
wrote partial bitmap bytes at the tail of an object.

I found these by enabling out-of-place unrolling all the time. To
improve our chances of detecting these sorts of bugs in the future,
this CL mimics this by enabling out-of-place mode 50% of the time when
doubleCheck is enabled so that we test both in-place and out-of-place
mode.
