Specialized fpc_varset_create_element and fpc_varset_(un)set for i386 and x86_64.

Rika requested to merge runewalsh/source:set1 into main

These fpc_varset_(un)set are faster than current Include / Exclude and after the recent change the benchmark has to make an effort to not get Include for set += [a] :D But this is a shortcoming of Include / Exclude that hopefully will be addressed someday. (No more after 12176d36.)

Specialized versions should be useful regardless. (Especially the day compiler learns to generate unset...)

Benchmark (of System functions): Set1Benchmark.pas.

My results:
