The construction of arrays when using the the Array function either as a constructor or a normal function is now handled fully in generated code in most cases. Only when Array is called with one argument which is either negative or abowe JSObject::kInitialMaxFastElementArray (which is currently 1000) or if the allocated object cannot fit in the room left in new space is the runtime system entered.
Two new native code built-in functions are added one for normal invocation and one for the construct call. The existing C++ builtin is renamed, but kept. When the normal invocation cannot be handled in generated code the C++ builtin is called. When the construct invocation cannot be handled in native code the generic construct stub is called (which will end up in the C++ builtin through a construct trampoline).
One thing that might be changed is preserving esi (constructor function) during the handling of a construct call. We know precisily what function we where calling anyway and can just reload it. This could remove the parameter construct_call to ArrayNativeCode and remove the handling of this from that function.
The X64 and ARM implementations are not part of this changelist.

The main piece of this change was to add support for break on return for ARM. On ARM the normal js function return consist of the following code sequence.
mov sp, fp
ldmia sp!, {fp, lr}
add sp, sp, #4
bx lr
to a call to the debug break return entry code using the following code sequence
mov lr, pc
ldr pc, [pc, #-4]
<debug break return entry code entry point address>

The values of Assembler::kPatchReturnSequenceLength and Assembler::kPatchReturnSequenceLength are somewhat misleading, but they fit the current use in the debugger. Also Assembler::kPatchReturnSequenceLength is used in the IC code as well (for something which is not related to return sequences at all). I will change that in a separate changelist.
For the debugger to work also added recording of the return sequence in the relocation info and handling of source position recording when a function ends with a return statement.
Used the constant kInstrSize instead of sizeof(Instr).
Passes all debugger tests on both simulator and hardware (only release mode tested on hardware).

Removed a false assertion in ScopeIterator that assumed context extension to never be a JSContextExtensionObject.
The context extension object in a 'with' context is JSContextExtensionObject iff the 'with' statement is generated from a catch block in order to extend its local scope with a variable holding exception object. This is how we differentiate 'catch' scope from 'with' scope.

The SCons build now supports building for 64-bit Windows. This still requires that the SCons build is passed an env parameter containing the PATH and LIB for the 64-bit build as SCons autodetects the 32-bit environment.
Lowered the warning level for the 64-bit build temporarily.
Added a verbose option to SCons to display the startup banner for the Microsoft Visual C++ tools.

For objects which only have simple assignments of the form this.x = ...; a
specialized constructor stub is now generated. This generated code allocates the
object and fills in the initial properties directly. If this fails for some
reason code continues in the generic constructor stub which in turn might pass
control to the runtime system.
Added counter to see how many objects are constructed using a specialized stub.
The specialized stub is only implemented for ia32 architecture in this change.
For x64 and ARM the generic construct stub is used.
This is change is identical to http://codereview.chromium.org/174392 (committed in r2753 and reverted in r2754) except that a few parts have already been committed from http://codereview.chromium.org/173469 (committed in r2762).

When copying a map always set the descriptor array to describe the pre-allocated properties, even when descriptors are to be dropped.
Added a test which otherwise failed with an assert on ARM in debug mode. The reason for it only surfasing on ARM is that the NewObject runtime function is always used for allocating new JSObjects on ARM.
This change includes a few parts of http://codereview.chromium.org/174392 needed to trigger the error.
