idle notifications after the one that causes the mark-compact
collection unless four or more garbage collections (scavenges) have
occurred.
The embedder should stop sending idle notifications once V8 returns
true from the IdleNotification call. This change is being defensive so
it will not hurt as badly if embedders continue to send idle
notifications.

Allow build-time customization of the max semispace size. Building a
version of V8 with snapshots and with a non-default max semi-space
size is much easier when you can set the max semispace size in the
build environment.

Currently weak handles retain an object for another GC round (oftem times,
major GC round.) Instrumenting Chromium shows that navigation leaves
many global objects which are only collected in next go. Let's
attempt to collect more garbage when approacing OOM condition.
This is a better version of rolled out r5455: now it's correctly
rebuilds object groups between additional GCs.

An attempt to retrieve security context for a function may fail if the
destination heap space is in an incomplete state. To fix this, we only
record unknown functions discovered at GC object moves, and then
register them after GC completes.

Since 2.6.31 perf_events interface has been available in the
kernel. There's a nice tool called "perf" (linux-2.6/tools/perf) that
uses this interface and provides capabilities similar to oprofile. The
simplest form of its usage is just dumping the raw log (trace) of
events generated by the kernel. In this patch I'm adding a script
(tools/ll_prof.py) to build profiles based on perf trace and our code
log. All the heavy-lifting is done by perf. Compared to oprofile agent
this approach does not require recompilation and supports code moving
garbage collections.
Expected usage is documented in the ll_prof's help. Basically one
should run V8 under perf passing --ll-prof flag and then the produced
logs can be analyzed by tools/ll_prof.py.
The new --ll-prof flag enables logging of generated code object
locations and names (like --log-code), and also of their bodies, which
can be later disassembled and annotated by the script.

The object's space in Page starts after Page header and is aligned to kMapAlignment which is 32 bytes on 32-bit and 8 bytes on 64-bit.
In case of 64-bit target, the current page header size is exactly 32 bytes so we get the code magically aligned at 32 bytes but it is better to have a separate CODE_POINTER_ALIGN macro to make sure the object space in Page is aligned properly for both maps and code.
There could be a small waste of bytes sometimes (since both Page header and Code header sizes are aligned separately) but it seems the optimal one would involve cross-dependencies between .h files and not clear if it's worth it.
This is a back-port from Isolates branch.

The cause for missing functions is that some of them are created
from compiled code (see FastNewClosureStub), and thus not get
registered in profiler's code map.
My solution is to hook on GC visitor to provide JS functions
addresses to profiler, only if it is enabled.

The number of inobject properties used to be derived from the number
of this property assignments in the constructor (and increased by 2 to
allow for properties added later). This very often leads to wasted inobject
slots.
This patch reclaims some of the unused inobject space by the following method:
- for each constructor function the first several objects are allocated using the initial
("generous) instance size estimation (this is called 'tracking phase').
- during the tracking phase map transitions are tracked and actual property counts are collected.
- at the end of the tracking phase instance sizes in the maps are decreased if necessary
(starting with the function's initial map and traversing the transition tree).
- all further allocation use more realistic instance size estimation.
Shrinking generously allocated objects without costly heap traversal is made possible
by initializing their inobject properties with one_pointer_filler_map (instead of undefined).
The initial slack for the generous allocation is increased from 2 to 6 which really helps some tests.

That could improve chances for commit success as currently,
if we moved free pages out of order, we cannot shrink spaces.
However, when we experience problems commiting from space back, we should
use most of resources at our disposal.
Also get rid of currently unused parameter to DeallocateFunction.

the code object's instructions.
This allows us to find a code object using just the pc. This approach
uses a cache (PcToCodeCache) to make sure we don't continuously have
to iterate heap pages.
This change eliminates the need for cooking and uncooking of stack frames.

r5147 wrongly assumed that a code cache for a slow case map is always empty.
This patch solves this: whenever we attempt to add a stub to a map's code cache
we check that this map is cached. If it is we give the object its own copy
of the map and only then modify the map.

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.

That could allow us to understand why commit of from space sometimes fails.
Another option would be start a separate structure with OS-related info, but
as it's a single field, let's put it into HeapStats, at least for now.

in allowing more flexible compilation and to simplify builtins lookup.
This changes a number of places where code objects are assigned to
SharedFunctionInfo objects to also assign this code object to the
JSFunction. In addition, the code flushing is changed slightly to
accomodate this (we need to flush the code from functions pointing to
SharedFunctionInfo objects that has already been flushed).
