Hi!
Forgot to include my answers to questions.

Q: Should it be any test for this?
Also, may be this should be done in the separate commit (not patch?).
 
A: It is such a silly bug, that no, I don't believe it's needed. I've literlly
changed the line from `table.insert(node.value, value)` to
`node.value = value`. And we still have tests for the AVL tree itself, so
we know for sure that this change doesn't break anything.
 
NB: CI is red in LuaJIT repo because this patch requires changes in the
tarantool repo, so please refer to CI runs in PR.

This patch reduces sysprof's parser memory footprint,
by avoiding reading all callchains before collapsing them.
Instead of it, parser merges stacks immediately after
reading them and stores counts in a lua table.

Also, it fixes a bug in the AVL-tree implementation,
which produced unnecessary inserts of values into nodes.
