[glib/gobject-speedups3: 6/7] Keep a count of construct params

[Matthias Clasen <matthiasc src gnome org>]

commit f7119a79354d1b55f18b8158573630ab861146f8

    Keep a count of construct params
    
    This avoids walking the construct params list
    one extra time just to count when constructing
    objects, for a small speedup of object construction
    in the presence of construct params.
