invalid load-history in emacsen that CANNOT_DUMP |

"loadup.el" sets `current-load-list' to nil, apparently so that it will
have that value when restarting a dumped emacs. However, when Emacs is
built with CANNOT_DUMP defined, "loadup.el" evaluates `top-level'
instead of dumping. This can lead to invalid entries in `load-history'
if something is defined, required, etc. during evaluation of that form.
For example, load-history will contain `((require . tetris))' if
~/.emacs defines this hook:
(add-hook 'lisp-interaction-mode-hook
(lambda () (require 'tetris)))
For `require', the problem can be fixed by also setting
`load-in-progress' to nil in "loadup.el", but this doesn't fix the bug
for other functions that change the load history.

The CANNOT_DUMP option no longer exists, and Emacs now uses a portable
dumper by default.
