With parallel recompilation enabled, objects made accessible by handles may
have changed between graph construction and graph optimization. Therefore
we must not assume that information on those objects remain the same between
those two phases. To police this, we forbid handle dereferencing during
graph optimization.
Exceptions to this rule are:
- Dereferencing the handle to obtain the raw location of the object. This
is safe since parallel recompilation acquires RelocationLock
- Some places that dereference the handle for a type check. These are checked
to be safe on a case-by-case basis.

When code objects in the heap for FUNCTIONs and OPTIMIZED_FUNCTIONs are marked by the GC, their prologue is patched with a call to a stub that removes the patch. This allows the collector to quickly identify code objects that haven't been executed since the last full collection (they are the ones that sill contain the patch). The functionality is currently disabled, but can be activated by specifying the "--age-code".

- The global object has a reference to the current global scope chain.
Running a script adds to the chain if it contains global lexical declarations.
- Scripts are executed relative to a global, not a native context.
- Harmony let and const bindings are allocated to the innermost global context;
var and function still live on the global object.
(Lexical bindings are not reflected on the global object at all,
but that will probably change later using accessors, as for modules.)
- Compilation of scripts now needs a (global) context (previously only eval did).
- The global scope chain represents one logical scope, so collision tests take
the chain into account.

works on the full code generator when running without snapshots.
The deoptimizer generates full-code-generator code and relies on it having
the same layout as last time. This means that the code the full code
generator makes for the snapshot should be the same as the code it makes
later. This change makes the full code generator create more consistent
code between mksnapshot time and run time.

This change enables optimization of top-level and eval-code. For this to work, it adds
support for declaring global variables in optimized code.
At the same time it disables the eager generation of deoptimization support data
in the full code generator (originally introduced in
r10040). This speeds up initial compilation and saves
memory for functions that won't be optimized. It requires
recompiling the function with deoptimization
support when we decide to optimize it.

just record the virtual register number given by the Hydrogen value id.
For temporaries, we request a new virtual register from the allocator.
For fixed temps, we don't need to do anything.

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

So far free variables references in eval code are not statically
resolved. For example in
function foo() { var x = 1; eval("y = x"); }
the variable x will get mode DYNAMIC and y will get mode DYNAMIC_GLOBAL,
i.e. free variable references trigger dynamic lookups with a fast case
handling for global variables.
The CL introduces static resolution of free variables references in eval
code. If possible variable references are resolved to bindings belonging to
outer scopes of the eval call site.
This is achieved by deserializing the outer scope chain using
Scope::DeserializeScopeChain prior to parsing the eval code similar to lazy
parsing of functions. The existing code for variable resolution is used,
however resolution starts at the first outer unresolved scope instead of
always starting at the root of the scope tree.
This is a prerequisite for statically checking validity of assignments in
the extended code as specified by the current ES.next draft which will be
introduced by a subsequent CL. More specifically section 11.13 of revision 4
of the ES.next draft reads:
* It is a Syntax Error if the AssignmentExpression is contained in extended
code and the LeftHandSideExpression is an Identifier that does not
statically resolve to a declarative environment record binding or if the
resolved binding is an immutable binding.

This change will ensure that full code with debug break slots is compiled and activated for all functions which already have activation frames.
This additional handling is only for functions which have activations on the stack, and that activation is of the full code compiled without debug break slots. In that case the full code is recompiled with debug break slots. It is ensured that the full code is compiled generating the exact same instructions - except for the additional debug break slots - as before. The return address on the stack is then patched to continue execution in the new code.

Lots of web pages have really frequently firing timers that keep the
profiler thread spinning if we require a period of JS inactivity
before suspending the profiler. While it's possible to throttle it by
increasing the sleep delay and adjusting the duration of the required
inactive period, it seemed much simpler to just stop it immediately on
exiting JS.
Stopping the profiler this way effectively turned off two optimization
heuristics: 1) eager optimization (it's reset on waking up the
profiler and now the profiler wakes up much more frequently) and 2)
optimization throttling based on JS to non-JS state ratio (the ratio
is now 100%). I removed these two heuristics and found no performance
regressions so far.

Optimized frames are now handled by the debugger. When discovering optimized frames during stack inspection in the debugger they are "deoptimized" using the normal deoptimization code and the deoptimizer output information is used to provide frame information to the debugger.
Before this change the debugger reported each optimized frame as one frame no matter the number of inlined functuions that might have been called inside of it. Also all locals where reported as undefined. Locals can still be reposted as undefined when their value is not "known" by the optimized frame.
As the structures used to calculate the output frames when deoptimizing are not GC safe the information for the debugger is copied to another structure (DeoptimizedFrameInfo) which is registered with the global deoptimizer data and processed during GC.

Only IA32 version for now. I'll start porting.
Strict mode functions are to get 'undefined' as the receiver when
called with an implicit receiver. Modes are bad! It forces us to have
checks on all function calls.
This change attempts to limit the cost by passing information about
whether or not a call is with an implicit or explicit receiver in ecx
as part of the calling convention. The cost is setting ecx on all
calls and checking ecx on entry to strict mode functions.
Implicit/explicit receiver state has to be maintained by ICs. Various
stubs have to not clobber ecx or save and restore it.
CallFunction stub needs to check if the receiver is implicit when it
doesn't know from the context.

While trying to fix Mac and Windows versions for this change:
http://codereview.chromium.org/6771047/, I figured out, that we
already store an isolate in StackFrameIterator, so we can use it in
frame objects, instead of requiring it from caller.
I've changed iterators usage to the following scheme: whenever a
caller maintains an isolate pointer, it just passes it to stack
iterator, and no more worries about passing it to frame content
accessors. If a caller uses current isolate, it can omit passing it
to iterator, in this case, an iterator will use the current isolate,
too.
There was a special case with LiveEdit, which creates
