A separate object type for the code cache have been added. This object has two different code caches. The first one (default_cache) is a fixed array organized in the same way as the as the code cache was before. The second cache (global_access_cache) is for code stubs to access the global object. This cache is organized as a hash table taking the property name and code flags as the key.
The reason for separating the global access stubs into a hash table representation is that the number of these is not bounded in the same was as the other types.

Replaced IsValid by IsPropertyOrTransition and used IsProperty in most
of the places where IsValid was used before. Most of the time when
inspecting a lookup result we really want to know if there is a real
property present. Only for stores are we interested in transitions.

Moved all the logic to a function on SharedFunctionInfo (including the flag check) to make things more readable.
Changed the check for setter to do a lookup for a named setter for each of the properties assigned in the constructor.
Added tests using accessors and interseptors set through the API.
Added fast case objects to the mjsunit test.

Simple objects which are constructed without calling the actual constructor function did not take setters defined on prototype chain of the new object into account.
Constructing objects this way is now not done if there are setters involved on the prototype chain of the new object.
This only fixes the case where the setter is found when the first object from a constructor is created. If the prototype chain is changed new objects will on take any change to setters into account.

1. Avoid using SKIP_WRITE_BARRIER when we don't have to (smis).
2. Check and document the remaining uses of SKIP_WRITE_BARRIER.
3. Only allow GetWriteBarrierMode when in an AssertNoAllocation scope.
The only functional change should be in DeepCopyBoilerplate where we
no longer use the write barrier mode (because of allocations). I'm
running benchmarks to see if this has a measurable impact on 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.

http://codereview.chromium.org/293023 .
Based on review feedback, defined the behavior of storing NaN and
+/-Infinity into external arrays of integer types as storing 0. Added
test cases. Added fucomi instruction to assembler. Fixed bug in
KeyedLoadIC::GenerateExternalArray when allocation of HeapNumber
failed. Fixed bug in encoding of 16-bit immediate arithmetic
instructions in 64-bit port.
Removed raising of exceptions for negative array indices passed to
external arrays and associated tests. Based on current discussion in
WebGL working group, will probably end up removing the exception
throwing altogether.

specification under development. The optimizations are patterned after
those previously done for CanvasPixelArray. This CL adds all of the
necessary framework but continues to use the generic KeyedLoadIC and
KeyedStoreIC code, to create a baseline for benchmarking purposes. The
next CL will add the optimized ICs to ic-ia32.cc and ic-x64.cc.
These new CanvasArray types have different semantics than
CanvasPixelArray; out-of-range values are clamped via C cast
semantics, which is cheaper than the clamping behavior specified by
CanvasPixelArray. Out-of-range indices raise exceptions instead of
being silently ignored.
As part of this work, pulled FloatingPointHelper::AllocateHeapNumber
up to MacroAssembler on ia32 and x64 platforms. Slightly refactored
KeyedLoadIC and KeyedStoreIC. Fixed encoding for fistp_d on x64 and
added a few more instructions that are needed for the new ICs. The
test cases in test-api.cc have been verified by hand to exercise all
of the generated code paths in the forthcoming specialized ICs.

For objects which only have simple assignments of the form this.x = ...; a
specialized constructor stub is now generated. This generated code allocates the
object and fills in the initial properties directly. If this fails for some
reason code continues in the generic constructor stub which in turn might pass
control to the runtime system.
Added counter to see how many objects are constructed using a specialized stub.
The specialized stub is only implemented for ia32 architecture in this change.
For x64 and ARM the generic construct stub is used.
This is change is identical to http://codereview.chromium.org/174392 (committed in r2753 and reverted in r2754) except that a few parts have already been committed from http://codereview.chromium.org/173469 (committed in r2762).

When copying a map always set the descriptor array to describe the pre-allocated properties, even when descriptors are to be dropped.
Added a test which otherwise failed with an assert on ARM in debug mode. The reason for it only surfasing on ARM is that the NewObject runtime function is always used for allocating new JSObjects on ARM.
This change includes a few parts of http://codereview.chromium.org/174392 needed to trigger the error.

During parsing functions are analyzed for statements of the form this.x = ...;. These assignments are categorized in two types: simple and non simple. The simple ones are where the right hand side is known to be either a constant or an argument to the function. If a function only contains statements of this type the property names are collected and for the simple assignments the index of the argument or the constant value assigned are stored as well.
When the initial map for a function is created and the function consists of only this type of assignemnts the initial map is created with a descriptor array describing these properties which will be known to always exist in an object created from the function.
The information on this property assignments is not collected during pre-parsing so if compiling using pre-parse data these optimization hints are not available.
Next step will be to use the information collected for the simple assignments to generate constructor code which will create and initialize the object from this information without calling the code for the function.

Allocate the code stubs dictionary and non monomorphic cache dictionary with an initial size which avoids these dictionaries to be expanded during bootstrapping. This gets rid of 9 dictionary expansions during bootstrapping.
Preallocate the dictionary when normalizing an object to a size sufficient for holding the number of properties which is expected to be added to the object. This is used when ceating an object from an object literal boilerplate where multiple properties are known to be added. This gets rid of 10 dictionary expansions during bootstrapping.
There are now 3 dictionary expansions left during bootstrapping.

With the new representation of the global object adding JavaScript accessors for a property after global inline caches was created for that property did not work property as the inline caches did not take the JavaScript accessor information (fixed array with two elements) that could be present in a global object property cell into account.
This is now fixed by changing the map for a global object when a JavaScript accessor is defined on it.

The problem was I incorrectly treated NULL result as failure to fetch
a property with a getter. However, if getter returns zero, it is
manifested as NULL pointer (see added test case).
Good news: that gives another boost as before this CL if getter returned
0, I did another slow lookup.

returns nothing.
That gives ~20% for dom benchmark/Document Object String Get, speeds up overall
dom_perf (not dramatically) and overall score for peacekeeper. Strange, but DOM

called from within a loop or not. In the past we lost the
information if a call site went megamorphic before a lazily
compiled callee was called for the first time. Now we track
that correctly (this is an issue that affects richards).
We still don't manage to track the in-loop state through a
constructor call, since constructor calls use LoadICs instead
of CallICs. This issue affects delta-blue. So in this patch
we assume that lazy compilations that don't happen through a
CallIC happen from inside a loop. I have an idea to fix this
but this patch is big enough already.
With our improved tracking of in-loop state I have switched
off the inlining of in-object loads for code that is not in
a loop. This benefits compile speed. One issue is that
eagerly compiled code now doesn't get the in-object loads
inlined. We need to eagerly compile less code to fix this.
