The new instance type 'Symbol' represents ES6 symbols (a.k.a. private/unique names). Currently, symbols are simple data objects that only carry a hash code, random-generated upon allocation.
The new type 'Name' now serves as the common super class for strings and symbols, and is supposed to represent property names. We will eventually migrate APIs from String to Name for the standard key type.
Strings and symbols share the same hash field representation, via the Name class. This way, we should be able to use the same code paths for symbols and internalized strings in most cases. Also, Symbol's instance type code is allocated adjacent to internalized string codes in the enum, allowing a simple range check for the common case.

in preparation of the introduction of ES6 'symbols' (aka private/unique names).
The SymbolTable became the StringTable. I also made sure to adapt all comments. The only remaining use of the term "symbol" (other than unrelated uses in the parser and such) is now 'NewSymbol' in the API and the 'V8.KeyedLoadGenericSymbol' counter, changing which might break embedders.
The one functional change in this CL is that I removed the former 'empty_string' constant, since it is redundant given the 'empty_symbol' constant that we also had (and both were used inconsistently).

Removed the following deprecated functions:
* Object::GetPointerFromInternalField
* Object::SetPointerInInternalField
* External::Wrap
* External::Unwrap
* Context::GetData
* Context::SetData
They have been deprecated in the 3.15 branch and are not used by Chrome anymore.
Furthermore, judging from bug reports and email threads, embedders like node.js
and others are already using 3.15, too. All removed API entries can be emulated
by a one-liner, so adapting should not be hard for anybody.
We want to introduce more deprecations soon, but to keep things simple and avoid
having old and not-so-old deprecations in v8.h, the 3.15 deprecations are now
removed.
In general, the strategy of keeping deprecated things for one stable release and
then removing them seems to be a good compromise between a maintenance nightmare
and annoying external embedders. :-)

Highlights of this CL:
* Introduced a new opcode in the deoptimizer for a setter stub frame.
* Added a global setter stub for returning after deoptimizing a setter.
* We do not need special deopt support for getters, although the getter stub creates an internal frame. The normal machinery works just right for this case, although we generate a stack that can never occur during normal fullcode execution. If this hurts us one day, we can parameterize and reuse the setter deopt machinery.

Thread class was receiving an isolate parameter by default.
This approact violates the assumption that only VM threads
can have an associated isolate, and can lead to troubles,
because accessing the same isolate from different threads
leads to race conditions.
This was found by investigating mysterious failures of the

don't dump their values, as they are not as self-descriptive as values

using output stream interface.
The size of JSON emitted is roughly equal to used heap size
(when stored as an ASCII string).
Now a whole heap snapshot can be serialized and transmitted outside
VM. This makes possible:
- implementing non-async UI for heap snapshots inspection;
- storing heap snapshots for further inspection;
- remote profiling (we can even implement a snapshotting mode
where a snapshot isn't even stored in VM, only transmitted --
good for mobile devices);
- creating tools for outside heap snapshots processing, e.g.

To gradually migrate to this new API, USE_NEW_QUERY_CALLBACK

1) introduce new API which should be explictily enabled;
2) switch to new API defining USE_NEW_QUERY_CALLBACK before
include of <v8.h> (that would require changes to client code as well)
3) remove old API from v8

To trace objects between snapshots, an external map of object tags is
maintained. After the first heap snapshot has been taken, the map is
updated by reporting object moves from the GC. If no snapshots were
taken, there is no overhead (except for flag checking).
I considered graph comparison algorithms that doesn't require using
object tags, but they are all of a high computational complexity, and
will still fail to detect object moves properly, even for trivial
cases, so using tags looks like unavoidable.

-. update v8 gyp to build v8.dll for chromium multi-dll version (win
and component==shared_library)

This changes the way the constants kJSObjectType, kFirstNonstringType and kProxyType are made available to the inlined part of the V8 API. This change to fixed constants resolves linker this linker error Windows
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: static int v8::internal::Internals::kJSObjectType" (?kJSObjectType@Internals@internal@v8@@2HA)
when linking against a V8 DLL.
This change also makes it possible to build all the C++ tests with ENABLE_DEBUGGER_SUPPORT not defined. Now C++ tests run ENABLE_DEBUGGER_SUPPORT not defined, and only the JavaScript tests which tests the debugger fails when ENABLE_DEBUGGER_SUPPORT is not defined.

Changed the disposal of external string resources to call a virtual Dispose method on the resource. The default inplementation of Dispose deletes the object and will capture the delete operator matching the new operator used to allocate the object.

Eventually named property query callbacks will return attributes
(as an integer) or an empty handle if property is not intercepted.
To gradually migrate to this new API, USE_NEW_QUERY_CALLBACK
macro would control if old or new style API is used.
So the migration plan is:
1) introduce new API which should be explictily enabled;
2) switch to new API defining USE_NEW_QUERY_CALLBACK before
include of <v8.h> (that would require changes to client code as well)
3) remove old API from v8
4) remove #define USE_NEW_QUERY_CALLBACK from clients.

Currently one can only define accessors on object templates. This patch
allows to create accessors on the fly.
These accessors could control access to elements as well. This element
support is somewhat rudimentary and may require future work (for example,
we probably don't want to convert index into a string.)

Changing ScriptData API to serialize its internal representation to a
const char* array.
This decouples the API from the internal representation and avoids the need for
callers to serialize themselves.
As a side-effect, ScriptData::New() no longer assumes ownership of its input.
This shouldn't matter as typical usage patterns for the old API would have
required a copy prior to calling ScriptData::New().

As several pages can run in a single V8 instance, it is possible to
have functions from different security contexts intermixed in a single
CPU profile. To avoid exposing function names from one page to
another, filtering is introduced.
The basic idea is that instead of capturing return addresses from
stack, we're now capturing JSFunction addresses (as we anyway work
only with JS stack frames.) Each JSFunction can reach out for
context's security token. When providing a profile to a page, the
profile is filtered using the security token of caller page. Any
functions with different security tokens are filtered out (yes, we
only do fast path check for now) and their ticks are attributed to
their parents.

1) Exposes Local<Context> v8::Debug::GetDebugContext().
Rationale: We can already get debugger context instance using various workarounds,
so exposing it explicitly in the API only makes things more clear.
2) Removes debugger.HasJavaScriptFrames() requirement for entering debugger context.
Rationale: Sometimes we'd like to call into debugger from the external native code.
3) Makes Debugger v8::Debug::Call execute on debugger context's global object.
Rationale: This is somewhat arguable, but temporary measure. We've agreed that we
should introduce a DebugAPI object that would expose necessary API in the debug-delay.
The problem is that it would take some time to define this API and it is not really
convenient to do that on the v8 land given the difference in v8 / host lifecycle.
The plan is to compose this API as a Debug.* wrapper outside v8 by means of exposing
debugger context's global object here, and once API settles down, upstream it to v8 and
start making Debug::Calls on this new DebugAPI object instead.

* Added Get and Set taking uint32_t for faster and more convenient
access to elements.
* Added less verbose casting for handles. Now instead of
v8::Local<v8::String>::Cast(args[0])
one can write
args[0].As<v8::String>().

This change allows to associate integer tags with blocks of profiler
log events, and repeat calls to 'ResumeProfiler' / 'PauseProfiler' in
order to establsh nested (not necessary properly nested) blocks. By
supporting this, we will be able to match WebInspector's CPU profiler
abilities in DevTools.
I also refactored some testing code.

Instead of weak handles external strings use a separate table. This
table uses 5 times less memory than weak handles. Moreover, since we
don't have to follow the weak handle callback protocol we can collect
the strings faster and even on scavenge collections.

Storing a JSArray in the Script object could cause an indirect reference from the compilation cache to a global object to be created. Now the line ends are only stored as a FixedArrya and when that is needed in JavaScript a JSArray copy is created. Changed some of the JavaScript code to cache the line ends in a local variable for better performance.

The different length string types was used to encode the string length and the hash in one field. This is now split into two fields one for length and one for hash. The hash field still encodes the array index of the string if it has one. If an array index is encoded in the hash field the string length is added to the top bits of the hash field to avoid a hash value of zero.
On 32-bit this causes an additional 4 bytes to be used for all string objects. On 64-bit this will be half on average dur to pointer alignment.

A callback on the debugger thread when a message is received. Allows the
embedding application to wake up the main thread in order to handle the
message. Useful when the embedding application is idle and sitting in a
select() call.

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.
