Better support for 'polymorphic' JS and external arrays
Allow keyed store/load stubs to switch between external array and fast JS arrays without forcing a state transition to the generic stub.
There CL consists of two pieces of functionality. First, code stubs for fast element arrays don't immediately transition to the MEGAMORPHIC state when there's a map mismatch. Second, two ICs are cached per map for fast elements, the MONOMORPHIC version, and a new MEGAMORPHIC version that handles two or more different maps and dispatches to shared stubs to perform the array operation.

Add option armeabi to the SCons build for selecting the floating point variant to use. Also add externally defined CCFLAGS environment for all targets. Run test.py with option -S armeabi=hardfloat to test with hardfloat enabled.
Make selecting hardfloat EABI variant a build-time option instead of a runtime option.
Add a simple check of the EABI variant during V8 initialization to exit if the compilation was not configured correctly. The reason for this is that GCC does not provide a compile time symbol defining the EABI variant. This check is not fool-proof as it cannot check the compilation configuration used for the snapshot if any.

Ensure that there is always enough bytes between consequtive calls in optimized code to write a call instruction at the return points without overlapping.
Add a call to deoptimize all functions after running tests with --stress-opt. This will catch some issues with functions which cannot be forcefully deoptimized. Some of the tests failed on ARM with that change without the rest of the changes in this change.

Change the comparison in the full code generator to use CompareIC instead of the CompareStub to record the types. This also implements the patching in the full code generator where the inlined smi code is de-activated by default to call the CompareIC once and then activating the inlined smi code by patching the code.
Fixed the smi comparison in the ICCompareStub.
Fixed ToBooleanStub to ensure that the scratch register used is not the input. Use r9 as default as that will never be input with Crankshaft.
Implemented lithium instruction CmpTAndBranch.
Make sure that the lithium instruction CmpID have operands in registrers as the current optimized code expects that.

This implements the type recording binary operation stub for ARM. This first iteration only supports ADD. Handling of 32-bit integers is currently not implemented but just transitions. The generic case for now delegates to the generic binary operation stub.

Change the ARM exit frame to have the same layout as the IA32 exit frame. This basically re-arranges the order of fp and sp and changes the sp location of the entry frame to hold the sp used by the gc and not the sp for popping the arguments. This removes the option of tearing down the frame and returning using one ldm instruction.
The main motivation for this is to avoid pushing an alignment word before generating the entry frame. The GC handling of optimized frames process the registers pushed as part of a safepoint and asumes that these are at the top of the frame, so if an alignment word is pushed this processing will be one off.
The alignment handling in the C entry stub have also been simplified. Now the value of lr is stored to a stack slot already reserved avoiding pushing it and keeping track of "frame skew".
This does result in more instructions in the exit frame on ARM, but we can look into improving this later.

This change provides fast code for a few special cases and calls the GenericBinaryOpStub for the rest.
It also changes the register allocation in the generation of lithium instructions to use fixed registers that are compatible with the generic stub. This allocation can be change once we use a more flexible implementation.
Finally, this change provides infrastructure to save double registers at safepoints, which is need to call the stub in deferred code.

The the call of the builtin in InstanceofStub was not correctly protected with an internal frame leading to the return address being handled as a pointer during GC.
Marked the Instanceof stub as allowing stub calls (the RecordWriteStub was removed some days ago).
This issue was not caught by the assertion designed for this when debug mode is run with --debug-code (which out tests always does) as generating code for Abort set the allow stub calls flag to true. This has been fixed by restoring the allow stub calls flag correctly.

The live registers are now only stored to the expression stack with the non pointer values being stored as smis (on the 32-bit platforms these values are assumed to be 31-bit max).
This makes the CEntryStub entry/exit code much simpler, and there is no longer any need for a mode (debug or normal) on it.

Object model changes
----------------------------------------
New fixed_cow_array_map is used for the elements array of a JSObject
to mark it as COW. The JSObject's map and other fields are not
affected. The JSObject's map still has the "fast elements" bit set. It
means we can do only the receiver map check in keyed loads and the
receiver and the elements map checks in keyed stores. So introducing
COW arrays doesn't hurt performance of these operations. But note that
the elements map check is necessary in all mutating operations because
the "has fast elements" bit now means "has fast elements for reading".
EnsureWritableFastElements can be used in runtime functions to perform
the necessary lazy copying.
Generated code changes
----------------------------------------
Generic keyed load is updated to only do the receiver map check (this
could have been done earlier). FastCloneShallowArrayStub now has two
modes: clone elements and use COW elements. AssertFastElements macro
is added to check the elements when necessary. The custom call IC
generators for Array.prototype.{push,pop} are updated to avoid going
to the slow case (and patching the IC) when calling the builtin should
work.
COW enablement
----------------------------------------
Currently we only put shallow and simple literal arrays in the COW
mode. This is done by the parser.

This adds a check to the fast case string add to ensure that the String object still have the default valueOf function. The default valueOf is sitting on a hidden prototype of String.prototype.
Before using the fast case valueOf the object is checked for a local valueOf property. For slow case objects this check always reports true (the dictionary is not probed, so valueOf might be there) and for fast case objects the descriptor array is checked for the valueOf symbol (just liniar scan). After that the prototype is checked for beeing the initial value of String.prototype. If this all pass (that is the default valueOf is still in place) this result is cached on the map making the check fast the next time.
This is only implemented in the optimizing compiler, as the two usages of %_IsStringWrapperSafeForDefaultValueOf is never hit by the full compiler.
I will port to x64 and ARM when this has been reviewed for ia32.
I will remove the performance counters prior to final commit.

This changes a number of places where code objects are assigned to
SharedFunctionInfo objects to also assign this code object to the
JSFunction. In addition, the code flushing is changed slightly to
accomodate this (we need to flush the code from functions pointing to
SharedFunctionInfo objects that has already been flushed).

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,

The macro assembler now checks for ARMv7 support and generates instructions for Ldrd/Strd accordingly. INstructions ldrd/strd in the assembler requires ARMv7 support enabled. This removes the a check for CAN_USE_ARMV7_INSTRUCTIONS making the ARMv7 support in the simulator fully controled by the --enable-armv7 flag.

- 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

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.

This is a first step towards loading globals directly from property cells instead
of going through a load IC.
This change supports only properties with the DontDelete attribute since
we are only able to bailout into the generic code generated by the secondary
code generator the beginning of a function. The resulting fast-case code is
specialized for a specific context. When invoked with a different global object,
it will always bailout to the secondary code.
When loading a property that does not exist at compile-time or a property
that is deleteable we still generate the generic load IC.
