TitleNo keyword arguments for arena commit limit

DescriptionIf you want to create an arena with a commit limit, you have to do this in two calls: first, mps_arena_create_k, then mps_arena_commit_limit_set. This can be inconvenient when writing a test case, say, to compare behaviour with and without a commit limit. It would be easier if there were a keyword argument for setting the initial commit limit because then everything would be encapsulated in the argument array.
AnalysisSimilarly, it would be nice if there were keyword arguments for setting the spare commit limit, and the initial arena state (parked/clamped/unclamped). See job003448.

Note that setting the initial commit limit might fail, in which case the arena creation should fail.
