apply can crash STk

Typing apply with no arguments can cause a segmentation fault:

STk> (apply)
Segmentation fault

because STk_apply never checks that its first argument is bound:

SCM STk_apply(SCM fct, SCM param)
{
Top:
  switch TYPE(fct) {
    case tc_subr_0:
         if (NULLP(param)) return SUBR0(fct)();
         break;
...
