This tweaks the internal descriptor representation to be slightly more compact.
This also fixes single location updates to be linearizable with respect to multi-location updates. In case of single-location updates, an internal
eval
operation didn't properly wait for a transaction operating on the location to be finished before updating the location. This was revealed by theAccumulator
STM test.
