* lisp/emacs-lisp/package.el: Byte compile the quickstart file

Earlier tests had found problems when byte-compiling the file,
but later investigations indicated the problem was not
directly related.  The performance difference is appreciable.

(package-quickstart-refresh): Byte compile the file.
(package-activate-all): Load byte-compiled version if available.
(package--quickstart-maybe-refresh): Delete the byte-compiled file as well.
