New description:
The instantiate_str is only implemented by float.pmc, integer.pmc,
fixedintegerarray.pmc and string.pmc.
It is only used by imcc/pbc.c make_pmc_const and
src/dynext.c make_string_pmc.
So I think it would be good idea to move this functionality to pbc.c and
dynext.c by a small change and then completely remove this instantiate_str
vtable function.
