This patch refactors the parser and preparser interface to be more
readable and type-safe. It has no behavior changes.
Previously, parsers and preparsers were configured via bitfield called
parser_flags in the Parser constructor, and flags in
PreParser::PreParseProgram, ParserApi::Parse, and ParserApi::PreParse.
This was error-prone in practice: six call sites passed incorrectly
typed values to this interface (a boolean FLAG value, a boolean false
and a boolean true value). None of these errors were caught by the
compiler because it's just an "int".
The parser flags interface was also awkward because it encoded a
language mode, but the language mode was only used to turn on harmony
scoping or not -- it wasn't used to actually set the parser's language
mode.
Fundamentally these errors came in because of the desire for a
procedural parser interface, in ParserApi. Because we need to be able
to configure the parser in various ways, the flags argument got added;
but no one understood how to use the flags properly. Also they were
only used by constructors: callers packed bits, and the constructors
unpacked them into booleans on the parser or preparser.
The solution is to allow parser construction, configuration, and
invocation to be separated. This patch does that.
It passes the existing tests.

This patchset begins by adding support for "yield", which is unlike other tokens
in JS. In a generator, whether strict or classic, it is a syntactic keyword.
In classic mode it is an identifier. In strict mode it is reserved.
This patch adds YIELD as a token to the scanner, and adapts the preparser and
parser appropriately. It also parses "function*", indicating that a function is
actually a generator, for both eagerly and lazily parsed functions.
Currently "yield" just compiles as "return".

The old HashMap class had an explicit member to determine the allocation
policy. The template version matches the approach used already for
lists.
Cleanup some include dependencies and unnecessary forward declarations.
Cleanup some dead code from isolate.h and replace some HEAP macros
with GetHeap().

This CL introduces a third mode next to the non-strict
(henceforth called 'classic mode') and 'strict mode'
which is called 'extended mode' as in the current
ES.next specification drafts. The extended mode is based on
the 'strict mode' and adds new functionality to it. This
means that most of the semantics of these two modes
coincide.
The 'extended mode' is entered instead of the 'strict mode'
during parsing when using the 'strict mode' directive
"use strict" and when the the harmony-scoping flag is
active. This should be changed once it is fully specified how the 'extended mode' is entered.
This change introduces a new 3 valued enum LanguageMode
(see globals.h) corresponding to the modes which is mostly
used by the frontend code. This includes the following
components:
* (Pre)Parser
* Compiler
* SharedFunctionInfo, Scope and ScopeInfo
* runtime functions: StoreContextSlot,
ResolvePossiblyDirectEval, InitializeVarGlobal,
DeclareGlobals
The old enum StrictModeFlag is still used in the backend
when the distinction between the 'strict mode' and the 'extended mode' does not matter. This includes:
* SetProperty runtime function, Delete builtin
* StoreIC and KeyedStoreIC
* StubCache

Previously the preparser always accepted natives syntax and let the
real parser throw the syntax error. In ES5, it should be an early error,
so the preparser must catch the error.
The perparser library does not expose parsing for natives syntax, it's
only used internally.

Duplicate identifier detection must be an early syntax error in strict code,
so errors in otherwise lazily compiled functions must be caught in the
preparser.
Originally introduced in r8541 and reverted in r8542.
Now really compiles on Windows.

This is a fix and reapply of r8516 with some comments addressed and more
tests added.
The difference from r8516 is that canonicalization of number literals is
no performed using the same methods as in v8, to avoid false positives/negatives
when detecting duplicates.

We now only recognize "native function" when it occurs in extension scripts
(parsing with a non-NULL extension), and only if there is no line-terminator
between "native" and "function" (so that it would otherwise be a Syntax Error).
Preparsing never recognizes native functions, which is acceptable since we
never preparse extension scripts (because we don't allow lazy functions
anyway).

Mainly, there were errors concerning blank lines before and after class access
control sections [whitespace/blank_line].
BEFORE an access control section (e.g. public:, private:) there should be a
blank line (except for the section right after the class declaration).
AFTER an access control section there should be no blank line.

Make checks.h not depend on flags.h or global.h (or anything else except
include/v8stdint.h). Only checks.cc has the dependencies (so another
implementation of checks.cc can be provided by the preparser).
Now files depending on checks.h (using ASSERT macros) can include it
directly without depending on all of v8.
