[RFC] compact buffers when idle

[Dmitry Antipov]

Core idea of this stuff is to run compact_buffer when idle, e.g. with:

(defun idle-compact-buffers (timeout)
  (run-with-idle-timer
   timeout t
   '(lambda nil
      (mapcar '(lambda (buffer)
                 (if (not (eq buffer (current-buffer)))
                     (compact-buffer buffer)))
              (buffer-list)))))

This offloads Fgarbage_collect, especially if there are a few hundreds of 
buffers.
