deferred code snippets are highly stylized. They always make a call
to a stub or the runtime and then return. This change takes advantage
of that.
Creating a deferred code object now captures a snapshot of the
registers in the virtual frame. The registers are automatically saved
on entry to the deferred code and restored on exit.
The clients of deferred code must ensure that there is no change to
the registers in the virtual frame (eg, by allocating which can cause
spilling) or to the stack pointer. That is currently the case.
As a separate change, I will add either code to verify this constraint
or else code to forbid any frame effect.
The deferred code itself does not use the virtual frame or register
allocator (or even the code generator). It is raw macro assembler
code.

This issue was raised by Brett Wilson while reviewing my changelist for readability. Craig Silverstein (one of C++ SG maintainers) confirmed that we should declare one namespace per line. Our way of namespaces closing seems not violating style guides (there is no clear agreement on it), so I left it intact.

- TARGET, the architecture we will generate code for.
This is brought it from the build system.
- HOST, the architecture our C++ compiler is building for.
This is detected automatically based on compiler defines.
This adds macros for 32 or 64 bit, and cleans up some
include conditionals, etc.

counting the reference to the return value and passing it to the
return label. This requires threading it through try/catch and
try/finally. The return value is loaded into eax more lazily than
before.
Also, perform some related refactoring of jump targets.

until a possible debug break location is reached. Currently this is call sites
with calls to code objects and JS return. Source position information in the
code therefore no longer refers to the "first" instruction generated for a
given source position (which was not the case defered code anyway) but to the
first break location after that source position was passed (again defered code
always start with source position information). This doesn't make a difference
for the debugger as it will always be stopped only at debug break locations.
However, this makes the life of the peep-hole optimizer much easier as many
oportunities for posh/pop eliminations where previosly blocked by relocation
information already written to the code object.
Two types of source positions are still collected. Statement positions indicate
the position of the start of the statement leading to this code and (plain)
positions indicate other places typically call sites to help indicate current
position in backtraces. The two different types of positions are also used to
distinguish between step next and step in.
Runs all the tests (including debugger tests) as before.
Moved the checking for the FLAG_debug_info to one place.
I will do the same changes to the ARM codegenerator in a seperate changelist.

Cleaned up ARM version by removing top of stack caching and by introducing push/pop elimination.
Cleaned up the way runtime functions are called to allow runtime calls with no arguments.
Changed Windows build options to make sure that exceptions are disabled and that optimization flags are enabled.
Added first version of Visual Studio project files.
git-svn-id: http://v8.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@13 ce2b1a6d-e550-0410-aec6-3dcde31c8c00
Added a few samples and support for building them. The samples include a simple shell that can be used to benchmark and test V8.
Changed V8::GetVersion to return the version as a string.
Added source for lazily loaded scripts to snapshots and made serialization non-destructive.
Improved ARM support by fixing the write barrier code to use aligned loads and stores and by removing premature locals optimization that relied on broken support for callee-saved registers (removed).
Refactored the code for marking live objects during garbage collection and the code for allocating objects in paged spaces. Introduced an abstraction for the map word of a heap-allocated object and changed the memory allocator to allocate executable memory only for spaces that may contain code objects.
Moved StringBuilder to utils.h and ScopedLock to platform.h, where they can be used by debugging and logging modules. Added thread-safe message queues for dealing with debugger events.
Fixed the source code reported by toString for certain builtin empty functions and made sure that the prototype property of a function is enumerable.
Improved performance of converting values to condition flags in generated code.
Merged disassembler-{arch} files.
