Move all of the CPU detection logic to the CPU class, and make
all other code use the CPU class for feature detection.
This also fixes the ARM CPU feature detection logic, which was
based on fragile string search in /proc/cpuinfo. Now we use
ELF hwcaps if available, falling back to sane(!!) parsing of
/proc/cpuinfo for CPU features.
The ia32 and x64 code was also cleaned up to make it usable
outside the assembler.

New flag is added that allows to specify CPU profiler sampling rate in microseconds as command line argument. It was tested to work fine with 100us interval(currently it is 1ms). Default values are kept the same as in the current implementation. The new implementation is enabled only on POSIX platforms which use signals to collect samples. Other platforms that pause thread being sampled are to follow.
SIGPROF signals are now sent on the profiler event processor thread to make sure that the processing thread does fall far behind the sampling.
The patch is based on the previous one that was rolled out in r13851. The main difference is that the circular queue is not modified for now.
On Linux sampling for CPU profiler is initiated on the profiler event processor thread, other platforms to follow.
CPU profiler continues to use SamplingCircularQueue, we will probably replace it with a single sample buffer when Mac and Win ports support profiling on the event processing thread.
When --prof option is specified profiling is initiated either on the profiler event processor thread if CPU profiler is on or on the SignalSender thread as it used to be if no CPU profiles are being collected.
ProfilerEventsProcessor::ProcessEventsAndDoSample now waits in a tight loop, processing collected samples until sampling interval expires. To save CPU resources I'm planning to change that to use nanosleep as only one sample is expected in the queue at any point.

All the tests that started crashing create ProfilerEventsProcessor on the stack. After r16284 SamplingCircularQueue buffer is allocated as a field of the queue instead of separate heap object. This increased self size of ProfilerEventsProcessor by about 1Mb. Windows malloc fails to allocate such an object on the stack and crashes.

All of these values are derived from the self samples count and there is no need to evaluate them in v8 when clients can do that when needed on their side.
Also added unsigned GetHitCount() which should be used instead of double GetSelfSamplesCount(). I'm going to deprecate the latter one once Blink has switched to GetHitCount.

If an developer attempts to "subclass" Error by running
`MyError.prototype = new Error();`, then the internal v8::Message object
that's produced and handed off to `window.onerror` handlers is poorly
stringified as "[object Object]".
This patch adjusts the stringification process for these objects to
include not only native Error objects, but also objects that have Error
in their prototype chain, and haven't overwritten Error.toString with
some custom variant.

The start and end time are now measured in microseconds and the type is int64_t.
This way it seems more natural as we are going to support submilisecond sampling
rate soon. Also it fixes cctest/test-cpu-profiler/ProfileStartEndTime test
failure caused by comparison between long double and double.

I'm going to change CPU profiler API and deprecate GetSelfTime, GetTotalTime and GetTotalSamplesCount on CpuProfileNode as all of those values are derived from self samples count and sampling rate. The sampling rate in turn is calculate based on the profiling duration so having start/end time and total sample count is enough for calculating smpling rate.

I'd like to propagate bailout reason to cpu profiler.
So I need to save it into heap object SharedFunctionInfo.
But:
1) all bailout reason strings spread across all the sources.
2) they are native strings and if I convert them into String then I may have a performance issue.
3) one byte is enough for 184 bailout reasons. Otherwise we need 8 bytes for the pointer.
Also I think it would be nice to have error strings collected in one place.
In that case we will get additional benefits:
It allows us to keep this set of messages under control.
It gives us a chance to internationalize them.
It slightly reduces the binary footprint.
From the other hand the developers have to add new strings into that enum.

The first jump to a specific label was marked as jump to absolute
position -4. This value was stored in the assembly as a branch to a
offset (-4 - (instruction offset + 8)). The offset is only 24 bit
long on ARM. Thus instruction offsets higher than 2^23 - 12 would overflow
the offset.
Fix by denoting the first jump to a label by storing the jump
instruction location as the target. This will result in offset of -8,
which of course always fits in the branch instruction.

In order to properly sanitize exception data during a 'window.onerror'
handler, we need to know whether a script was served with proper CORS
headers at the time it was loaded into V8. This patch adds a single bool
to ScriptOrigin, and pipes that through the compiler to land on the
Script object. We can then retrieve the parameter when calling the
embedder's exception callback.
