This introduces an additional check into the StoreIC_ArrayLength builtin
checking that the array still has fast properties. Redifinitions of the
length property that would cause it's type or attributes to change, will
switch to slow properties, thereby invalidating said optimization.

Original commit message:
Add a level of indirection to exception handler addresses.
To support deoptimization of exception handlers, the handler address in the
stack is converted to a pair of code object and an index into a separate
table of code offsets. The index part is invariant under deoptimization.
The index is packed into the handler state field so that handler size does
not change.

The "live bytes" count is *really* a "marked black" count - i.e., the count of bytes *known* to be live.
Fix aggravating bug on X64 where assembler code used a value that was off
by a factor of 2^31.
Ensure that sweeping clears live-bytes. Added other missing increments.
Added print statements to trace live-byte modifications, under a flag.
Still a few cases of undercounting left.

Use the BitField helper class for the code flags, so that we do not have to
define both a shift and a mask explicitly. This makes changing the flags
layout simpler.
Also, make the 'mask' and 'max' members of BitField into constants, because
they are constant and so that they can be used as constant expressions.
E.g., so they can be used in declaring other const members or in static
asserts.

Before: every context cached the nearest enclosing function context. This
assumed that for nested contexts (i.e., with and catch contexts) the
enclosing function had a materialized link in the context chain.
Now: when necessary, we loop up the context chain to find such a context.
This enables catch contexts without forcing the enclosing function to
allocate its own context.

- Introduce a class JSReceiver, that is a common superclass of JSObject and
JSProxy. Use JSReceiver where appropriate (probably lots of places that we
still have to migrate, but we will find those later with proxy test suite).
- Move appropriate methods to JSReceiver class (SetProperty,
GetPropertyAttribute, Get/SetPrototype, Lookup, and so on).
- Introduce new JSFunctionProxy subclass of JSProxy. Currently only a stub.
- Overhaul enum InstanceType:
* Introduce FIRST/LAST_SPEC_OBJECT_TYPE that ranges over all types that
represent JS objects, and use that consistently to check language types.
* Rename FIRST/LAST_JS_OBJECT_TYPE and FIRST/LAST_FUNCTION_CLASS_TYPE
to FIRST/LAST_[NON]CALLABLE_SPEC_OBJECT_TYPE for clarity.
* Eliminate the overlap over JS_REGEXP_TYPE.
* Also replace FIRST_JS_OBJECT with FIRST_JS_RECEIVER, but only use it where
we exclusively talk about the internal representation type.
* Insert JS_PROXY and JS_FUNCTION_PROXY in the appropriate places.
- Fix all checks concerning classification, especially for functions, to
use the CALLABLE_SPEC_OBJECT range (that includes funciton proxies).
- Handle proxies in SetProperty (that was the easiest part :) ).
- A few simple test cases.

Only IA32 version for now. I'll start porting.
Strict mode functions are to get 'undefined' as the receiver when
called with an implicit receiver. Modes are bad! It forces us to have
checks on all function calls.
This change attempts to limit the cost by passing information about
whether or not a call is with an implicit or explicit receiver in ecx
as part of the calling convention. The cost is setting ecx on all
calls and checking ecx on entry to strict mode functions.
Implicit/explicit receiver state has to be maintained by ICs. Various
stubs have to not clobber ecx or save and restore it.
CallFunction stub needs to check if the receiver is implicit when it
doesn't know from the context.

Bit tests with a memory operand should be avoided on Intel processors.
On Atom bts with a memory operand has 10~11 cycles latency and on Core 2
it has 5~6 cycles latency, and also produces multiple uops.
If the bit base operand is a register the latency is 1 cycle instead.
This CL improves several cases from Kraken 1.1 benchmark on Atom. For example,
12% for imaging-desaturate, 8% for audio-fft, and 5% for audio-beat-detection.

Better support for 'polymorphic' JS and external arrays
Allow keyed store/load stubs to switch between external array and fast JS arrays without forcing a state transition to the generic stub.
There CL consists of two pieces of functionality. First, code stubs for fast element arrays don't immediately transition to the MEGAMORPHIC state when there's a map mismatch. Second, two ICs are cached per map for fast elements, the MONOMORPHIC version, and a new MEGAMORPHIC version that handles two or more different maps and dispatches to shared stubs to perform the array operation.

This is IA32 only for now.
Added a random value to each assembler instance (JIT cookie) to be used for constant splitting. Added safe versions of setting a register with an immediate value and for pushing an immediate value. Used these functions where user controlled immediate values could be emitted in the code stream. I also used it for immediates which are an argument number even though the number of formal arguments is currently limited to 16k.
I found no compares directly with user controlled constants.
I am not sure whether the test is that useful, but it might catch some changes missing constant splitting.

Make esi available to the register allocator rather than dedicating it
permanently to the context.
The context is still passed in register esi to JavaScript and to the runtime
as part of the calling convention. Because some stubs might end up calling
JS or the runtime, it is also conservatively passed to stubs.
Roughly half the calls have been modified to use the context as an input
value in fixed register esi. The other half are marked as calls or deferred
code so esi is spilled and can be explicitly set.
It is no longer necessary to restore the context to esi after a call that
might change it.

There was an unnecessary load on every statically-resolved context lookup.
Remove it.
This revealed a hidden bug in const initializers inside 'with'. They claim
to be statically resolved (having slot type CONTEXT) but they occur in a
spot where the runtime context chain and the static scope chain do not
agree. This is fixed by special casing const initializers in the backend.

Change the ARM exit frame to have the same layout as the IA32 exit frame. This basically re-arranges the order of fp and sp and changes the sp location of the entry frame to hold the sp used by the gc and not the sp for popping the arguments. This removes the option of tearing down the frame and returning using one ldm instruction.
The main motivation for this is to avoid pushing an alignment word before generating the entry frame. The GC handling of optimized frames process the registers pushed as part of a safepoint and asumes that these are at the top of the frame, so if an alignment word is pushed this processing will be one off.
The alignment handling in the C entry stub have also been simplified. Now the value of lr is stored to a stack slot already reserved avoiding pushing it and keeping track of "frame skew".
This does result in more instructions in the exit frame on ARM, but we can look into improving this later.

The the call of the builtin in InstanceofStub was not correctly protected with an internal frame leading to the return address being handled as a pointer during GC.
Marked the Instanceof stub as allowing stub calls (the RecordWriteStub was removed some days ago).
This issue was not caught by the assertion designed for this when debug mode is run with --debug-code (which out tests always does) as generating code for Abort set the allow stub calls flag to true. This has been fixed by restoring the allow stub calls flag correctly.

inline allocation code used the expected number of properties to
calculate the number of inobject properties for an object instead of
getting the actual number from the initial map.
It is safer to use the inobject property count from the initial map in
any case because that is the amount the instances will get. I think
this disconnect got introduced when adding shrinking of objects.
Unfortuntely I haven't been able to create a simple reproduction for a
test case but this fixes the webpage that exhibits the crash. I'll see
if I can create a reproduction tomorrow.

The live registers are now only stored to the expression stack with the non pointer values being stored as smis (on the 32-bit platforms these values are assumed to be 31-bit max).
This makes the CEntryStub entry/exit code much simpler, and there is no longer any need for a mode (debug or normal) on it.

Object model changes
----------------------------------------
New fixed_cow_array_map is used for the elements array of a JSObject
to mark it as COW. The JSObject's map and other fields are not
affected. The JSObject's map still has the "fast elements" bit set. It
means we can do only the receiver map check in keyed loads and the
receiver and the elements map checks in keyed stores. So introducing
COW arrays doesn't hurt performance of these operations. But note that
the elements map check is necessary in all mutating operations because
the "has fast elements" bit now means "has fast elements for reading".
EnsureWritableFastElements can be used in runtime functions to perform
the necessary lazy copying.
Generated code changes
----------------------------------------
Generic keyed load is updated to only do the receiver map check (this
could have been done earlier). FastCloneShallowArrayStub now has two
modes: clone elements and use COW elements. AssertFastElements macro
is added to check the elements when necessary. The custom call IC
generators for Array.prototype.{push,pop} are updated to avoid going
to the slow case (and patching the IC) when calling the builtin should
work.
COW enablement
----------------------------------------
Currently we only put shallow and simple literal arrays in the COW
mode. This is done by the parser.

This adds a check to the fast case string add to ensure that the String object still have the default valueOf function. The default valueOf is sitting on a hidden prototype of String.prototype.
Before using the fast case valueOf the object is checked for a local valueOf property. For slow case objects this check always reports true (the dictionary is not probed, so valueOf might be there) and for fast case objects the descriptor array is checked for the valueOf symbol (just liniar scan). After that the prototype is checked for beeing the initial value of String.prototype. If this all pass (that is the default valueOf is still in place) this result is cached on the map making the check fast the next time.
This is only implemented in the optimizing compiler, as the two usages of %_IsStringWrapperSafeForDefaultValueOf is never hit by the full compiler.
I will port to x64 and ARM when this has been reviewed for ia32.
I will remove the performance counters prior to final commit.
