- Add --harmony-symbols flag.
- Add Symbol constructor; allow symbols as (unreplaced) return value from constructors.
- Introduce %CreateSymbol and %_IsSymbol natives and respective instructions.
- Extend 'typeof' code generation to handle symbols.
- Extend CompareIC with a UNIQUE_NAMES state that (uniformly) handles internalized strings and symbols.
- Property lookup delegates to SymbolDelegate object for symbols, which only carries the toString method.
- Extend Object.prototype.toString to recognise symbols.
Per the current draft spec, symbols are actually pseudo objects that are frozen with a null prototype and only one property (toString). For simplicity, we do not treat them as proper objects for now, although typeof will return "object". Only property access works as if they were (frozen) objects (via the internal delegate object).

The new instance type 'Symbol' represents ES6 symbols (a.k.a. private/unique names). Currently, symbols are simple data objects that only carry a hash code, random-generated upon allocation.
The new type 'Name' now serves as the common super class for strings and symbols, and is supposed to represent property names. We will eventually migrate APIs from String to Name for the standard key type.
Strings and symbols share the same hash field representation, via the Name class. This way, we should be able to use the same code paths for symbols and internalized strings in most cases. Also, Symbol's instance type code is allocated adjacent to internalized string codes in the enum, allowing a simple range check for the common case.

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).

This fixes the deoptimizer to materialize arguments objects of correct
length even in cases where the actual argument values are unknown and
were optimized away by Crankshaft. This can happen if only the length
property or the identity of an arguments object is used.

This patch moves the condition to the right place:

The patch is based on the previous one that was rolled out: https://code.google.com/p/v8/source/detail?r=12985
On Linux sampling for CPU profiler is initiated on the profiler event processor thread, other platforms to follow.
CPU profiler continues to use SamplingCircularQueue, we will replave it with a single sample buffer when Mac and Win ports support profiling on the event processing thread.
When --prof option is specified profiling is initiated either on the profiler event processor thread if CPU profiler is on or on the SignalSender thread as it used to if no CPU profiles are being collected.
ProfilerEventsProcessor::ProcessEventsAndDoSample now waits in a tight loop, processing collected samples until sampling interval expires. To save CPU resources I'm planning to change that to use nanosleep as only one sample is expected in the queue at any point.

The reason this test fails on ARM hardware but not on Intel hardware
(including the ARM simulator) is this:
'\xa0' is interpreted as a negative signed byte number. Casting it to
uc16 sign-extends it. The resulting string does not fit into a one-byte
string, thus a two-byte string is allocated.
For some reason the code compiled for ARM does not sign-extend, and 0xa0
fits into a one-byte string. Thus a one-byte string is allocated. Trying
to cast it to two-byte causes assertion failure.

This moves the __proto__ property to Object.prototype and turns it into
a callback property actually present in the descriptor array as opposed
to a hack in the properties lookup. For now it still is a "magic" data
property using foreign callbacks and not an accessor property visible to
JavaScript.
The second effect of this change is that JSON.parse() no longer treats
the __proto__ property specially, it will be defined as any other data
property. Note that object literals still have their special handling.

When there are interceptors on an object, it's possible to
end up with duplicate property names. But when all the names
are provided by v8, a collision is not possible, so we can
fast-path that case by not de-duping.
Also added better test coverage for interceptor API.

Unified parameter order of CreateHandle with the rest of v8 on the way. A few
Isolate::Current()s had to be introduced, which is not nice, and not every place
will win a beauty contest, but we can clean this up later easily in smaller steps.

This includes:
* adding the CODE_ADD_LINE_POS_INFO, CODE_START_LINE_INFO_RECORDING, CODE_END_LINE_INFO_RECORDING event and the corresponding functionality.
* adding the JITCodeLineInfo struct to record the code line info. I added this definition because Danno mentioned that "we'd like to cleanup and decouple the external debugging functionality"
* some other small changes.

The assembler has 8 different vmov variants. The one for vmov.32 and for moving
an immediate into a double reg only differs in the type of the second
paremeter: vmov.32 takes an int, the other takes a double.
The situation is dangerous because C++ will happily implicitly convert between
int and double.
This patch changes the signature of the vmov.32 assembler function so that it
cannot be confused with the other vmovs.

This allows Crankshaft to completely inline a f.apply() dispatch if the
exact number of arguments is known and the function is constant. The
deoptimizer doesn't generate the f.apply() frame during deoptimization,
so the materialized frames look like f.apply() did a tailcall.

object-observe.js uses weak maps to add "hidden" properties to
objects. Previously, the hash tables it was using weren't actually
weak. This patch changes the existing runtime functions to create
instances of JSWeakMap instead of exposing ObjectHashTable directly.
