to the runtime will both patch in the more specialized binary op
stub and calculate the answer. This eliminates the need to call
both the rest of the binary op and the patching runtime call. The
runtime routines are altered to be more agressive in returning
Smis so we don't get spurious heap numbers as inputs to binary ops
while we are patching the binary op ICs.

The IC stub is completely generic, so there will only be one such stub
in the system.
Added a new overloaded version of the macro assembler RecordWrite
method for cases where we have the address we store to computed up
front.

A potential issue with this change is creating lots of maps when
objects flip between fast/slow elements modes. We could add special
transitions to avoid this. Yet testing this on our benchmarks, gmail,
and wave seems to indicate that this is not a real problem.

Similar or duplicate checks are scattered around the code before doing the dictionary load.
Also the entire branch in GenerateCallNormal that handles global/builtin receiver is
guaranteed to bail out from GenerateDictionaryLoad, so there is no point in generating it at all.
The purpose of the patch is:
- making C++ code more compact and transparent,
- not generating dead code.
There is a tiny performance gain. The patch is ia32 only for now.
Please tell me if I am missing anything.

If a two-byte string only contains ascii characters, then we can save
memory when flattening a cons string containing it. Similarly we can
use this in Array.prototype.join implementation. To track this a new
bit is added to instance type. This bit is used as a hint in generated
code and in runtime functions.
To enable testing a new V8 extension is added controlled by
--expose-externalize-string flag.

Generating code for function return on ARM is now aligned with the other platforms. The first non-shadowed return statement encountered will emit code for function return and all other returns including the fall through at the bottom of a function will jump to that.

With the change in r4820 all return statements are now breakable like any statement, so stepping will stop before the return statement actually returning from a function. With this change the position when breaking in the function return (after executing the return statement) will be the actual end of the function. At this point the return value is available as it saved to the stack by the debug break at return handling. Added information on the actual value returned from the function to the debugger.

Added support for more precise break points when debugging and stepping. To achieve that additional nop instructions are inserted where breaking would otherwise be impossible. The number of nop instructions inserted are sufficient to make place for patching with a call to a debug break code stub. On Intel that is 5 nop's for 32-bit and 13 for 64-bit. Om ARM 3 nop instructions (12 bytes) are required.
In order to avoid inserting nop's in to many places a simple ast checker have been added to check whether there are breakable code in a statement or expression. If it is possible to break in an expression no additional break enabeling code is inserted.
Added break locations to the true and false part of a conditional expression.
Added stepping tests to cover more constructs.
These changes are only in the full compiler.
Changed the default value for the option --debugger in teh d8 shell from true to false. The reason for this is that with --debugger turned on the full compiler will be used for all code in when running d8, which can be unexpeceted.

NumberToUint32 that I was trying to use maps -0 to +0 (as desired) but
also maps +/-Infinity to +0, which made +/-Infinity a valid string

These string methods can be composed from two basic blocks: charCodeAt
and fromCharCode, both of which have fast cases for certain types of
inputs. In this patch these two blocks are refactored to allow
generating the fast cases without having to jump around the slow
cases. In the slow cases since they can now be invoked both from
inline runtime functions and from IC stubs we either have to
save/restore state of the current frame or enter/leave a new internal
frame. This is handled by new RuntimeCallHelper interface. Its
implementation for virtual frame is based on FrameRegisterState class
extracted from DeferredCode class.

1) do not push receiver early---that simplifies tail call preparation
on ia32/x64 and renders special cleanup unnecessary;
2) do not do second map check if interceptor's and cached holder
are the same;
3) do not push/pop receiver if receiver and holder registers are the same
(means that receiver is interceptor's holder);
4) do batch pushes on arm;
5) minor cosmetic improvements.

The full compiler is now complete on ARM as well. The syntax checker is still used to determine whether to use it for top level code or not during normal execution. When debugging is enabled all code will be compiled with the full compiler.
This change removes the temporary flag --force-full-compiler and now the flag --always-full-compiler enables the full compiler for all code on all platforms.
This also fixes building on Intel platform without debugger support (ENABLE_DEBUGGER_SUPPORT not defined) and adds full check for the full compiler for lazily compiled code.

- New сardmarking write barrier handles large objects and normal objects in a similar fashion (no more additional space for pointer tracking is required, no conditional branches in WB code).
- Changes to enable oldspaces iteration without maps decoding:
-- layout change for FixedArrays: length is stored as a smis (initial patch by
Kevin Millikin)
-- layout change for SharedFunctionInfo: integer fields are stored as smi on
arm, ia32 and rearranged on x64.
-- layout change for String: meaning of LSB bit is fliped (1 now means hash not
computed); on x64 padding is added.
-- layout of maps is _not_ changed. Map space is currently iterated in a special
way.

This makes the full compiler handle all constructs on ia32. However the syntax checker for the full compiler is still the same so for both normal operation and with the flag --always-full-compiler the coverage of the full compiler will be the same.
This is on preparation for improving the debugger break point experience where the plan is to only use code from full code generator when debugging JavaScript.
Runs all tests on all three platforms in release and debug mode. The tests also run with both the following flags to the test runner
--special-command="@ --nofull-compiler"
--special-command="@ --always-full-compiler"
The changes to the x64 and ARM architectures are mainly structural due to the change to EmitVariableAssignment to handle initialization of const variables.

Chromium build.
v8.gyp no longer sets any V8_TARGET_ARCH_* macro on the Mac. Instead, the
proper V8_TARGET_ARCH_* macro will be set by src/globals.h in the same way as
the V8_HOST_ARCH_* macro when it detects that no target macro is currently
defined. The Mac build will attempt to compile all ia32 and x86_64 .cc files.
#ifdef guards in each of these target-specific source files prevent their
compilation when the associated target is not selected. For completeness,
these #ifdef guards are also provided for the arm and mips .cc files.

Also check more than one character at a time.
16-bit immediates requires a prefix that changes the length of the instruction.
This causes predecoder mispredictions and subsequent pipeline stalls.

of having a list of virtual frame pointers in the jump
target we have one virtual frame, which is the frame that
all have to merge to to branch to that frame. The virtual
frame in the JumpTarget is inside the JumpTarget, rather than
being an allocated object that is pointed to. Unfortunately
this means that the JumpTarget class has to be able to see
the size of a VirtualFrame object to compile, which in turn
lead to a major reorganization of related .h files. The
actual change of functionality in this change is intended
to be minimal (we now assert that the virtual frames match
when using JumpTarget instead of just assuming that they do).

Added a simple new space check on the elements fixed array which can allow
updating with other values than smis without updating the remembered set.
Also combined the positive smi and range check so that a separate smi check can be avoided when the key is known to be a smi.
