For some reason, the scope's arguments and arguments shadow were
variable proxies, which resulted in all references to the arguments
shadow being shared in the AST. This makes it hard to put per-node
state on the AST nodes.
I took the opportunity to remove Variable::AsVariable which has
confused people in the past, and to rename Variable::slot to the more
accurate Variable::AsSlot.

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.

This includes adding a new inline IsSpecObject method to the code
generator. The old approach was somehow ineffecient since we would
call both IsObject, IsUndetectable and IsFunction to determine if
something was an object according to the spec. This change introduces
a new macro that determines if something is an object according to the
spec (and this does not include null).
This change also corrects a few places where undetectable objects was
not allowed even when they should be (priorly they would use only
IS_SPEC_OBJECT_OR_NULL, which would return false on an undetectable
object, the new IS_SPEC_OBJECT returns true on an undetectable object.

With the change in r4820 all return statements are now breakable like any statement, so stepping will stop before the return statement actually returning from a function. With this change the position when breaking in the function return (after executing the return statement) will be the actual end of the function. At this point the return value is available as it saved to the stack by the debug break at return handling. Added information on the actual value returned from the function to the debugger.

Added support for more precise break points when debugging and stepping. To achieve that additional nop instructions are inserted where breaking would otherwise be impossible. The number of nop instructions inserted are sufficient to make place for patching with a call to a debug break code stub. On Intel that is 5 nop's for 32-bit and 13 for 64-bit. Om ARM 3 nop instructions (12 bytes) are required.
In order to avoid inserting nop's in to many places a simple ast checker have been added to check whether there are breakable code in a statement or expression. If it is possible to break in an expression no additional break enabeling code is inserted.
Added break locations to the true and false part of a conditional expression.
Added stepping tests to cover more constructs.
These changes are only in the full compiler.
Changed the default value for the option --debugger in teh d8 shell from true to false. The reason for this is that with --debugger turned on the full compiler will be used for all code in when running d8, which can be unexpeceted.

These string methods can be composed from two basic blocks: charCodeAt
and fromCharCode, both of which have fast cases for certain types of
inputs. In this patch these two blocks are refactored to allow
generating the fast cases without having to jump around the slow
cases. In the slow cases since they can now be invoked both from
inline runtime functions and from IC stubs we either have to
save/restore state of the current frame or enter/leave a new internal
frame. This is handled by new RuntimeCallHelper interface. Its
implementation for virtual frame is based on FrameRegisterState class
extracted from DeferredCode class.

The macro assembler now checks for ARMv7 support and generates instructions for Ldrd/Strd accordingly. INstructions ldrd/strd in the assembler requires ARMv7 support enabled. This removes the a check for CAN_USE_ARMV7_INSTRUCTIONS making the ARMv7 support in the simulator fully controled by the --enable-armv7 flag.

The full compiler is now complete on ARM as well. The syntax checker is still used to determine whether to use it for top level code or not during normal execution. When debugging is enabled all code will be compiled with the full compiler.
This change removes the temporary flag --force-full-compiler and now the flag --always-full-compiler enables the full compiler for all code on all platforms.
This also fixes building on Intel platform without debugger support (ENABLE_DEBUGGER_SUPPORT not defined) and adds full check for the full compiler for lazily compiled code.

This makes the full compiler handle all constructs on ia32. However the syntax checker for the full compiler is still the same so for both normal operation and with the flag --always-full-compiler the coverage of the full compiler will be the same.
This is on preparation for improving the debugger break point experience where the plan is to only use code from full code generator when debugging JavaScript.
Runs all tests on all three platforms in release and debug mode. The tests also run with both the following flags to the test runner
--special-command="@ --nofull-compiler"
--special-command="@ --always-full-compiler"
The changes to the x64 and ARM architectures are mainly structural due to the change to EmitVariableAssignment to handle initialization of const variables.

The calling convention for keyed store IC on ARM is changed to receive the arguments value, key and receiver in registers r0, r1 and r2 instead of on the stack. When calling keyed store IC with a virtual frame the arguments are passed through the virtual frame and consumed by the call.
Changed the register usage in the IC code to postpone spilling the registers holding value, key and receiver to the stack until making a call into the runtime system.
Runs all the tests with:
--special-command="@ --nofull-compiler"
--special-command="@ --always-full-compiler"
--special-command="@ --noenable-vfp3"

Chromium build.
v8.gyp no longer sets any V8_TARGET_ARCH_* macro on the Mac. Instead, the
proper V8_TARGET_ARCH_* macro will be set by src/globals.h in the same way as
the V8_HOST_ARCH_* macro when it detects that no target macro is currently
defined. The Mac build will attempt to compile all ia32 and x86_64 .cc files.
#ifdef guards in each of these target-specific source files prevent their
compilation when the associated target is not selected. For completeness,
these #ifdef guards are also provided for the arm and mips .cc files.

The calling convention for keyed load IC's on ARM now passes the key and receiver in registers r0 and r1.
The code path in the ARM full compiler for handling keyed property load now has the same structure as for ia32 where the keyed load IC is also called with key end receiver in registers.

The calling convention for keyed load IC is changed to have the key passed both in a register (r0) and on the stack.
Next steps will be first to remove the key from the stack and then pass the receiver in a register (r1).

is both on top of the stack and also in r0. This makes
sense because the receiver is usually in r0 anyway. We may
remove it from the stack later. Also removes some spilled
scopes from the code generator allowing it to keep expression
temporaries in registers more.

Instaed of having a nop after all non-inlined calls to load IC use a different nop (mov r1, r1 instead of mov r0, r0) to detect an inlined load IC.
Added more infrastructure to the deferred code handling to make it possbile to block constant pool emitting in a deferred code block, including the branch instruction ending the deferred code block.
Addressed a couple of comments to http://codereview.chromium.org/1715003, including adding an assert to make sure that the patching of an ldr instruction is always possible.

Generate inlined named property load for in-object properties. This uses the same mechanism as on the Intel platforms with the map check and load instruction of the inlined code being patched by the inline cache code. The map check is patched through the normal constant pool patching and the load instruction is patched in place.
