[turbofan] Escape analysis support for LoadElement with variable index.
This adds support to the escape analysis to allow scalar replacement
of (small) FixedArrays with element accesses where the index is not a
compile time constant. This happens quite often when inlining functions
that operate on variable number of arguments. For example consider this
little piece of code:
```js
function sum(...args) {
let s = 0;
for (let i = 0; i < args.length; ++i) s += args[i];
return s;
}
function sum2(x, y) {
return sum(x, y);
}
```
This example is made up, of course, but it shows the problem. Let's
assume that TurboFan inlines the function `sum` into it's call site
at `sum2`. Now it has to materialize the `args` array with the two
values `x` and `y`, and iterate through these `args` to sum them up.
The escape analysis pass figures out that `args` doesn't escape (aka
doesn't outlive) the optimized code for `sum2` now, but TurboFan still
needs to materialize the elements backing store for `args` since there's
a `LoadElement(args.elements,i)` in the graph now, and `i` is not a
compile time constant.
However the escape analysis has more information than just that. In
particular the escape analysis knows exactly how many elements a non
escaping object has, based on the fact that the allocation must be
local to the function and that we only track objects with known size.
So in the case above when we get to `args[i]` in the escape analysis
the relevant part of the graph looks something like this:
```
elements = LoadField[elements](args)
length = LoadField[length](args)
index = CheckBounds(i, length)
value = LoadElement(elements, index)
```
In particular the contract here is that `LoadElement(elements,index)`
is guaranteed to have an `index` that is within the valid bounds for
the `elements` (there must be a preceeding `CheckBounds` or some other
guard in optimized code before it). And since `elements` is allocated
inside of the optimized code object, the escape analysis also knows
that `elements` has exactly two elements inside (namely the values of
`x` and `y`). So we can use that information and replace the access
with a `Select(index===0,x,y)` operation instead, which allows us to
scalar replace the `elements`, since there's no escaping use anymore
in the graph.
We do this for the case that the number of elements is 2, as described
above, but also for the case where elements length is one. In case
of 0, we know that the `LoadElement` must be in dead code, but we can't
just mark it for deletion from the graph (to make sure it doesn't block
scalar replacement of non-dead code), so we don't handle this for now.
And for one element it's even easier, since the `LoadElement` has to
yield exactly said element.
We could generalize this to handle arbitrary lengths, but since there's
a cost to arbitrary decision trees here, it's unclear when this is still
beneficial. Another possible solution for length > 2 would be to have
special stack allocation for these backing stores and do variable index
accesses to these stack areas. But that's way beyond the scope of this
isolated change.
This change shows a ~2% improvement on the EarleyBoyer benchmark in
JetStream, since it benefits a lot from not having to materialize these
small arguments backing stores.
Drive-by-fix: Fix JSCreateLowering to properly initialize "elements"
with StoreElement instead of StoreField (which violates the invariant
in TurboFan that fields and elements never alias).
