Change more functions used by the Compiler class to have a uniform
interface: they get passed as argument an input/output pointer to a
CompilationInfo that they mutate if they succeed, and they return a
flag telling whether they succeeded.
Also, remove some unnecessary timers.

The plan is to use the CompilationInfo class to communicate inputs and
outputs to compilation pipeline phases, which each return a boolean
success/failure flag.
The intent is to make it easier to compose small pieces of the
pipeline without having to grow a custom function each time, each
taking a half dozen arguments.
This change modifies the very front end (the parser).

For some reason, the scope's arguments and arguments shadow were
variable proxies, which resulted in all references to the arguments
shadow being shared in the AST. This makes it hard to put per-node
state on the AST nodes.
I took the opportunity to remove Variable::AsVariable which has
confused people in the past, and to rename Variable::slot to the more
accurate Variable::AsSlot.

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.

Contextual load requires only a map check followed by a cell hole
check so we can generate pretty compact code for that. The fact that
we have inlined code is marked by mov ecx, offset instruction after
the IC call. Inlining is only enabled inside loops and in non-builtin
functions.
The generated code size increase is about 3%. This descreased the
pc-to-code cache hit rate in some of the benchmarks that trigger
GC. To compensate we now have 4 times as much entries in the cache.

When running profiling in debug mode, several assertions in frame
iterators that are undoubtedly useful when iterator is started from a
VM thread in a known "good" state, may fail when running over a stack
of a suspended VM thread. This patch makes SafeStackFrameIterator
to proactively check addresses and bail out from iteration early,
before an assertion will be triggered.

This change introduces near labels in the assembler, allowing us to
uptimize forward jumps (conditional and unconditional) if we can
guarantee that the jump is witin range -128 to +127.
I changed a large fractions of the existing Labels to NearLabels, and
left out cases where it was not immediately clear if it could be used
or not (not immediately clear means labels covering a large code
block, or used in function calls which we could potentially change to
accept near labels).

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.

The live registers are now only stored to the expression stack with the non pointer values being stored as smis (on the 32-bit platforms these values are assumed to be 31-bit max).
This makes the CEntryStub entry/exit code much simpler, and there is no longer any need for a mode (debug or normal) on it.
Fix a missing live register when breaking at ARM keyed load.

After introducing the direct instruction pointer in functions the
CallApplyLazy method was changed on all platforms. The change made to
the 64 bit version was wrong, not using the right operand for the code
comparisons always forcing us into slow case.

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.

This adds a check to the fast case string add to ensure that the String object still have the default valueOf function. The default valueOf is sitting on a hidden prototype of String.prototype.
Before using the fast case valueOf the object is checked for a local valueOf property. For slow case objects this check always reports true (the dictionary is not probed, so valueOf might be there) and for fast case objects the descriptor array is checked for the valueOf symbol (just liniar scan). After that the prototype is checked for beeing the initial value of String.prototype. If this all pass (that is the default valueOf is still in place) this result is cached on the map making the check fast the next time.
This is only implemented in the optimizing compiler, as the two usages of %_IsStringWrapperSafeForDefaultValueOf is never hit by the full compiler.
I will port to x64 and ARM when this has been reviewed for ia32.
I will remove the performance counters prior to final commit.

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).

This includes adding a new inline IsSpecObject method to the code
generator. The old approach was somehow ineffecient since we would
call both IsObject, IsUndetectable and IsFunction to determine if
something was an object according to the spec. This change introduces
a new macro that determines if something is an object according to the
spec (and this does not include null).
This change also corrects a few places where undetectable objects was
not allowed even when they should be (priorly they would use only
IS_SPEC_OBJECT_OR_NULL, which would return false on an undetectable
object, the new IS_SPEC_OBJECT returns true on an undetectable object.
