I think we should get rid of all calls to this function. Minor GCs will still have to call something like it, but the correctness constraints will be a little looser. This first patch changes getInitialShape so that we can pass numFixedSlots rather than the alloc kind.

This builds on top of some of Terrence's getAllocKind work. It removes all instances of getAllocKind.

After your email this morning I was going to go try to do this today myself. It's nice to know we're thinking along the same lines.
