No program uses directly `make-record` (or `record` for that matter).

They are used internally by cl-lib and eieio to implement cl-defstruct
and eieio's defclass.  So, `make-record` and `record` should be of the
"fast" kind, since the extra check can be in defclass and cl-defstruct
(where it's very cheap anyway).
