in preparation of the introduction of ES6 'symbols' (aka private/unique names).
The SymbolTable became the StringTable. I also made sure to adapt all comments. The only remaining use of the term "symbol" (other than unrelated uses in the parser and such) is now 'NewSymbol' in the API and the 'V8.KeyedLoadGenericSymbol' counter, changing which might break embedders.
The one functional change in this CL is that I removed the former 'empty_string' constant, since it is redundant given the 'empty_symbol' constant that we also had (and both were used inconsistently).

Mostly automatised as:

Now with arm and x64 support. Additionally, added default unreachable case to switch statement in CompareIC::TargetState to make win and mac compilers happy.
Reviewer guide:
This is an exact copy of 10216 except:
src/arm/*
src/x64/*
src/ic.cc (added default case to swith in CompareIC::TargetState)

This includes specialcasing the generation when we know that the maps
of the two objects are the same. In addition, a new specialized
compare ic known objects cache is created.
The reason for the cache is that we need to have access to the stub
code from the roots; if we do not, the GC will collect the stub. In
this specialized case we use the map pointer as key in the cache, and
we always do a lookup before generating code. Actually hitting
something in the cache will happen very rarely, but we could
potentially overwrite an existing stub, which again will lead to the
GC collecting this old stub (even if it is referenced from other code
objects)

This change is based on my previous change enabling inlining calls-as-function
fixing the bugs related to deoptimization.
The function value on top of the environment was dropped too late in the old code.
As a result we could get a wrong value on top after deoptimization.
This change includes r9619. It was reverted because of test failures that are fixed
with this patch.

1. Record AST id for CallFunctionStub.
2. Correctly extract cached target from CallFunctionStub inline cache.
3. Fix a bug when inling call as a function in effect or value context:
Handle abnormal exits correcty.
4. Fix a bug when inlining call as a function in test context: drop function
correctly from true and false block.
5. Avoid inlining mutually recursive functions by checking the stack of function
states before inlining. This was not a bug, but is just a more general
check to avoid recursive inlining.

Some AST nodes (Property, Call, etc.) store either a list of receiver
types or a monomorphic receiver type. This patch merges the two fields
using a small pointer list. GetMonomorphicReceiverType() is now a
purely convenience function returning the first and only recorded
type.
This saves about 500K (of about 39M) on average when compiling V8
benchmark as measured by a simple patch adding a zone allocation
counter (https://gist.github.com/1149397).

with AST IDs. Previously 3 different places had to match in how they handle a
given case, now we are down to 2, with an even simpler logic.
The downside is that due to this simpler logic the allocated dictionary could be
larger than before, but test have shown that this happens *very* rarely, because
its capacity is rounded to the next power of 2, anyway. Furthermore, the oracle
doesn't live long enough that we should really care.
The whole oracle is probably still a bit too tricky in its details, but this is
at least a step into the right direction.

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.
