disable closure iterator changes in nim-lang#23787 unless `-d:nimOptI…

…ters` is enabled (nim-lang#24108)

refs nim-lang#24094, soft reverts nim-lang#23787

nim-lang#23787 turned out to cause issues as described in nim-lang#24094, but the
changes are still positive, so it is now only enabled if compiling with
`-d:nimOptIters`. Unfortunately the changes are really interwoven with
each other so the checks for this switch in the code are a bit messy,
but searching for `nimOptIters` should give the necessary clues to
remove the switch properly later on.

Locally tested that nimlangserver works but others can also check.
