The tail call implementation is hidden behind the --harmony-tailcalls
flag, which is off-by-default (and has been unstaged since February).
It is known to be broken in a variety of cases, including clusterfuzz
security issues (see sample Chromium issues below). To avoid letting
the implementation bitrot further on trunk, this patch removes it.

This makes sure that we preserve call's tailness even if we have
introduced a loop exit between the call and the return.
