Subject: [PATCH] Speed up BlendFileBlock instantiation with __slots__

Due to the huge number of BlendFileBlock objects created for packing a
production-size blend file, using slots here actually makes the
dependency tracer significantly (p<0.001) faster. In my test case the
speed improvement was 16% for a 'bam list' command.
