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

Original commit message:
Add a level of indirection to exception handler addresses.
To support deoptimization of exception handlers, the handler address in the
stack is converted to a pair of code object and an index into a separate
table of code offsets. The index part is invariant under deoptimization.
The index is packed into the handler state field so that handler size does
not change.

This was pretty heavyweight. It was kept in just for a few corner cases
that assumed it was there. We can work around them by making sure that the
expression in a reified test context is always really the expression that
was visited in that context; and by inspecting the context manually and
consing up a pair of extra AST IDs for the unusual case of unary not in a
value AST context.

Previously we omitted all cases where the global eval property was shadowed,
even if by a variable holding the same value. ES5 requires us to treat these
as direct calls.
We still throw if calling indirect eval with a detached global object.

This implements block scoped 'const' declared variables in harmony mode. They
have a temporal dead zone semantics similar to 'let' bindings, i.e. accessing
uninitialized 'const' bindings in throws a ReferenceError.
As for 'let' bindings, the semantics of 'const' bindings in global scope is not
correctly implemented yet. Furthermore assignments to 'const's are silently
ignored. Another CL will introduce treatment of those assignments as early
errors.

This eliminates compile-errors when assigning Handle<SerializedScopeInfo> to
Handle<Object> in a place where the declaration was not available because
variables.h was not included.
As a result I had to also move the enum Variable::Mode to v8globals.h and
rename it to VariableMode.

Although this patch is not small, most parts of it are rather mechanical:
* First of all, the concept of a 'nil-like' value is introduced, which can be
null or undefined. They are treated symmetrically regarding comparisons, so
it makes sense to handle them in a uniform manner. It is a mystery why
JavaScript defines two of those beasts, when even *one* is a design wart...
* Extended and renamed a few things which now handle undefined in addition to
null.
* Made the parts of the full code generator and the hydrogen generation which
deal with comparisons a bit more similar regarding their handling of special
cases.
* Refactored the syntactical detection of special cases for comparisons,
hopefully making them a bit more readable and less copy-n-paste-oriented.
Things like this should really be a one-liner in any sane programming
language... :-P
* Cut down the length of the argument lists of a few functions to something
less insane, making them more easily understandable locally. This involves
minor code duplication, but this was a good tradeoff and can be remedied
later if necessary.
* Replaced some boolean arguments with more readable enums.
* Fixed a TODO: Values which are definitely a Smi or unboxed can never be equal
to null or undefined.

1) Don't make a call to C without having a valid frame on the stack.
2) Don't generate a call to a stub while generating a stub, unless we can be
sure that the stub we are calling has already been generated (the stub
generation code is not reentrant wrt. GC).

The Great Master Plan is to move the recognition of special cases for
comparisons further down the compilation pipeline where more information is
available. This is a first step into this direction: The special handling of
equality comparisons involving null is pushed from the parser to the code
generators, removing the need for a special AST node. (There are rumors from
usually well-informed sources that this node type is actually a relic of ancient
crankshaft days...)
The next steps will be the unification of null/undefined handling and pushing
the special case handling in crankshaft even further down the pipeline, enabling
the recognition of cases like "var foo=null; if (foo === bar) ...", but these
will be in separate CLs.

The changes to scopes and parser introduce a VariableProxy
wrapping the function-name variable for function literals.
It seems the easiest way to get an AST id for the HSimulate
after context-slot stores in declarations.

We have to emit code for declarations later into the body block
(and not into the start block) so that the environment contains
the correct values.
In order to capture the environment effect of the declarations
that generate code (function declarations) I inserted a separate
AST id and a HSimulate after the declarations are visited.
Also fixes handling deopt in named function expressions:
