In this change, the support comes in two flavours:
--perf_jit_prof - outputs the files in a new perf format that only works with a
patched perf tool (patch obtained from Stephane Eranian). Both 'perf report' and
'perf annotate' are supported (the file format also contains the machine code).
--perf_basic_prof - outputs the files in a format that the existing perf tool
can consume. Only 'perf report' is supported.
In both cases, we have to disable code compaction because the perf tool does not
understand code relocation. (We are told that code relocation should be
supported soon.)
Usage:
perf record -g d8 --perf_jit_prof --no_compact_code_space my.js
perf report
The change itself is straightforward - we simply listen to code events and
write an entry to a log file for every new piece of code.
I am not yet sure whether we should keep both versions or just one (and which
one). My hope is the reviewers can help here.

These classes are meant to replace OS::Ticks() and OS::TimeCurrentMillis(),
which are broken in several ways. The ElapsedTimer class implements a
stopwatch using TimeTicks::HighResNow() for high resolution, monotonic
timing.
Also fix the CpuProfile::GetStartTime() and CpuProfile::GetEndTime()
methods to actually return the time relative to the unix epoch as stated
in the documentation (previously that was relative to some arbitrary
point in time, i.e. boot time).
The previous Windows issues have been resolved, and we now use GetTickCount64()
on Windows Vista and later, falling back to timeGetTime() with rollover
protection for earlier Windows versions.

Added a console parameter for source map to the tick processor.
The tickprocesspor reads in the source maps and uses it to output the original filename, line number and column in the profile.
Modified d8 to output column numbers into the log, since this is needed to do source mapping.

New abstract class CodeEventListener was created.
CodeEventLogger which is the base class for Jit, LowLevel
and CodeAddressMap loggers was inherited from CodeEventListener.
CodeAddressMap class was moved to serializer.cc because serializer is the only user for it. Actually it collects code names and pushes them to the standard log as SnapshotCodeNameEvent. So I extracted this code into separate function CodeNameEvent. It happens that this method works only when Serializer serializes an object. So I added direct log call there.
CodeEventLogger class declaration was moved to the header
because CodeAddressMap needs it.
The code for the nested class CodeEventLogger::NameBuffer was left in the cc file.
CpuProfiler now is inherit CodeEventListener but not used
the loggers infrastructure yet due to the complex initialization schema. I'd like to fix that in a separate cl.

The idea is to extract all the CodeEvent loggers into separate classes
make an interface for code events and put them into a listeners array.
I extracted code that works with name_buffer into a separate base class CodeEventLogger.
And made JitLogger, LowLevelLogger and new CodeMap its descendants.
As a side effect I converted NameBuffer into nested class of CodeEventLogger
and converted NameMap into nested class of CodeMap.

Stack iterator takes return address based on the frame pointer (ebp) and detects JS frames based on value at fp + StandardFrameConstants::kMarkerOffset. So in order the iterator to work correctly this values should be already setup for the current function. Stack frame is constructed at the very beginning of JS function code and destroyed before return. If sample is taken before before the frame construction is completed or after it was destroyed the stack iterator will wrongly think that FP points at the current functions frame base and will skip callers frame. To avoid this we mark code ranges where stack frame doesn't exist and completely ignore such samples.
This fixes cctest/test-cpu-profiler/CollectCpuProfile flakiness.

Since symbols and strings share a common representation, most of this change is about consistently replacing 'String' with 'Name' in all places where property names are expected. In particular, no new logic at all is necessary for maps, property dictionaries, or transitions. :) The only places where an actual case distinction is needed have to do with generated type checks, and with conversions of names to strings (especially in logger and profiler).
Left in some TODOs wrt to the API: interceptors and native getters don't accept symbols as property names yet, because that would require extending the external v8.h.

This includes:
* adding the CODE_ADD_LINE_POS_INFO, CODE_START_LINE_INFO_RECORDING, CODE_END_LINE_INFO_RECORDING event and the corresponding functionality.
* adding the JITCodeLineInfo struct to record the code line info. I added this definition because Danno mentioned that "we'd like to cleanup and decouple the external debugging functionality"
* some other small changes.
