This patch fixes another inefficiency in the Objective-C compiler.

When it was comparing method signatures, it would copy all the argument types
into some temporary node chains, and then compare these copies.  The copies
are then thrown away.  It all seems really pointless (since you can just
access the argument types and compare them directly, as this patch does),
but the inefficiency was hidden by the usage of get_arg_type_list() which
looked like a very innocent and professionally looking API, while it does
a very expensive copy of everything into a newly allocated chain of nodes.

This patch saves about 10k node allocations when compiling a file that
includes the Objective-C GNUstep system frameworks.  With -fsyntax-only,
that gives about a 0.5% speedup.

Ok to commit ?

Thanks
