a6a7c75ae0 MIPS port initial commit
This is the first step in the MIPS port of V8. It adds assembler, disassembler and simulator for the MIPS32 architecture.

Contains stubbed out implementation of all the compiler/code generator infrastructure to make it all build.

Patch by Alexandre Rames from Sigma Designs Inc.

This is the landing of http://codereview.chromium.org/543161.

b5a19c1036 Rework the way we handle the fact that the ARM simulator uses a
separate JS stack.

In exception handling, we need to be able to compare addresses into
the JavaScript portion of the stack with the address of a C++ handler
on the stack.  Since the stacks are separate on the simulator, we need
a JavaScript stack address corresponding to a C++ try catch handler in
order to perform valid address comparisons.

On the simulator, we now link the C++ try catch handlers indirectly
through the JS stack and use the JS stack indirection address for
comparisons.

      JS                    C++
                           
                           handler
 [C++ address]   <------    next_
                \
                 \
                  \---->   handler
 [C++ address]   <------    next_


On actual hardware the C++ try catch handlers continue to be directly
linked.
