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.

With the current API the embedder has to extrenalize a string each
time a string is encountered to avoid the cost of repeated character
copying/conversion. The issue here is that the externalization cost
itself is non-negligible (both in time and space) and should not be
paid for a rarely used string. This change is an attempt to predict a
string's usage frequency based on its freshness. A string is
considered fresh if it was recently allocated in the new space.

Currently we only pass a boolean parameter indicating whether
the input operands to the GenericBinaryOpStub are guaranteed
to be numbers or not.
Instead we pass the complete number type as a parameters. This
allows to use more precise type information for code generation
in the stub.
Also make the computation of the result type more precise and correct on both ia32 and x64.

NumberToString in runtime JavaScript is inlined through a call to a stub. Currently the stub only checks the number string cache and only if the number is a smi. Code is shared with the inlining of number string cache lookup when adding a smi to a string.

Each frame element gets a new attribute with number type information. A frame element can be:
- smi
- heap number
- number (i.e. either of the above)
- or something else.
The type information is propagated along with all virtual frame operations.
Results popped from the frame carry the number information with them.
Two optimizations in the code generator make use of the new
information:
- GenericBinaryOpSyub omits map checks if input operands are numbers.
- Boolean conversion for numbers: Emit inline code for converting a number (smi or heap number) to boolean. Do not emit call to ToBoolean stub in this case.

All two character string results from adding two strings and from sub string used to be handled in the runtime system as a lookup in the symbol table was done before allocating a new string. The native code for string add and sub string now probes the symbol cache for two character strings to avoid the runtime call. If the result string is not found in the symbol table within a fixed number of probes a new string is just allocated. Newly allocated two character strings are not added to the symbol table immediately.

This change add simple local live variable information to
the fast code generator. It supports only AST nodes that
are accepted by the syntax checker.
Each variable use points to a variable definition structure
which contains the last use of the definition.
To determine whether a variable is live after a certain point
we can check whether its last use occurs later in the evaluation
order defined by the AST labeling number.
The new information is currently only printed out together with
the IR and not yet used for code generation.

Initial implementation of ad hoc must-be-smi tracking in the fast code
generator. Type information is used to avoid the write barrier for
smi property stores and to avoid the smi check for the inputs/output
of bitwise OR.

function instead of baking in the address of the first one that we see
in code.
This removes the need for fixups processing and makes the stubs safe
when there is no natives cache and therefore multiple versions of the
builtin functions.
