This CL updates RelocInfo update operations and set_target_address_at to enable
skipping of the icache flush if it going to be batched up later.
Code::CopyFrom and Code::Relocate are modified to avoid individual icache
flushes since the whole code area will be flushed after the reloc info is
updated.
These changes reduce a regression when enabling the OOL constant pool on Arm,
since this change can cause MovT/MovW instructions for relocatable targets
if the constant pool is full.
Scores for Mandreel latency on a Nexus 5:
- OOL CP disabled: 3533
- OOL CP enabled, without this CL: 1825
- OOL CP enabled, with change: 3015

Traditionally, we cross compile a snapshot iff the serializer is enabled.
This will change in the future.
Changes:
- CpuFeatures probing is done once per process, depending on whether we
cross compile.
- CpuFeatures are consolidated into the platform-independent assembler.h
as much as possible.
- FLAG_enable_<feature> will only be checked at probing time (already the
case for ARM).
- The serializer state is cached by the MacroAssembler.
- PlatformFeatureScope is no longer necessary.
- CPUFeature enum values no longer map to CPUID bit fields.

The serializer state and even the CPU features will be per-Isolate
later. Currently we get away with global state, because mksnapshot
runs single-threaded and has only 1 Isolate, but this will change.
Furthermore, these changes are yet another prerequisite for removing a
catch-22 at initialization time when we try to enable serialization.
This CL is similar in spirit to r20919, BTW.

This patch includes 3 fixes for veneers emission.
1) Block veneer pools emission in the PatchingAssembler.
2) Fix the check for veneer pool emission just before a constant pool.
3) Forbid copy of labels. The list of JumpTableEntry used to track the
deoptimization table entries would make copies of the labels when growing.
Doing so, it would confuse the Assembler that was tracking the labels via
pointers.

This CL enables RelocInfo pointers which live in the constant pool to be treated
as normal pointers by the slot buffer, avoiding the requirement of creating fake
RelocInfo objects during UpdateSlots() in order to update these slots. This
is possible because constant pool entries are just pointers and don't require
the RelocInfo machinary to be updated.
EmbeddedObject constant pool entries can be added untyped to the slot buffer,
while code targets are still typed in order to correctly update the target
address based on the relocated code object.
Note: this is required in order to enable OOL constant pool support on Arm, but
should be benifitial for the current inline constant pool used by Arm code.

It was only used for Math.log, and even then only in full code and in %_MathLog. For crankshafted code, Intel already used the FP operations directly, while the ARM/MIPS ports were a bit lazy and simply called the stub. The latter directly call the C library now without any cache. It would be possible to directly generate machine code if somebody has the time, from what I've seen out in the wild it should be only about a dozen instructions.

This removes tons of architecture-specific code and makes it easy to
experiment with other pseudo-RNG algorithms. The crankshafted code is
extremely good, keeping all things unboxed and doing only minimal
checks, so it is basically equivalent to the handwritten code.
When benchmarks are run without parallel recompilation, we get a few
percent regression on SunSpider's string-validate-input and
string-base64, but these benchmarks run so fast that the overall
SunSpider score is hardly affected and within the usual jitter. Note
that these benchmarks actually run even faster when we don't
crankshaft at all on the main thread (the regression is not caused by
bad code, it is caused by Crankshaft needing a few hundred microsecond
for compilation of a trivial function). Luckily, when parallel
recompilation is enabled, i.e. in the browser, we see no regression at
all!

To keep the structure of the serializer more or less untouched, we use
some ingenious Corry-approved(TM) 3-step technology (a.k.a. "hack"):
* Create copies of code objects.
* Wipe out all absolute addresses in these copies.
* Write out the cleaned copies instead of the originals.
In conjunction with --random-seed, our snapshots are reproducible now.

Previously, the result of target_reference_address() could only be
read, writing to it would have had an architecture-dependent effect,
e.g. writing into the code on ia32, a no-op on arm, etc.
This refactoring-only CL turns this into a simple getter, making it
impossible to use incorrectly.
More to come...

This change means that code which is never executed is garbage collected immediately, and code which is only executed once is collected more quickly (limiting heap growth), however, code which is re-executed is reset to the young age, thus being kept around for the same number of GC generations as currently.
