Subject: [PATCH] [stdlib] Optimize gen_server:multi_call()

Utilize the "new" selective receive optimizations (introduced in OTP 24) and
process alias (also introduced in OTP 24) to implement gen_server:multi_call()
without the use of a middleman process. Also removed support for communication
with R6B nodes.
