Log Message:
-----------
SvOOK only applies to scalar-shaped SVs, when !SvROK
This flag is not meaningful to SVs that can't contain a PV buffer; i.e.
AVs, HVs, CVs, GVs, etc.
Assert the correct SV type and absence of ROK in SvOOK_on(), preventing
its use on invalid SV types.
Ignore non-matching types in SvOOK() test, claiming to be always off in
that case.

Log Message:
-----------
Rearrange SvFLAGS bits to make a spare one for scalars
The rarely-used PCS_IMPORTED flag bit only applies to RVs when used as
GV placeholders in the symbol table. It's never meaningful at the same
time as the OOK bit would be, so we can share the same bit position for
both flags.
Doing this frees up the SVp_SCREAM flag position for any scalar SV type.
