py/objgenerator: Eliminate need for mp_obj_gen_wrap wrapper instances.

For generating functions there is no need to wrap the bytecode function in
a generator wrapper instance.  Instead the type of the bytecode function
can be changed to mp_type_gen_wrap.  This reduces code size and saves a
block of GC heap RAM for each generator.
