When a function is called with a value type as the receiver this is now boxed as an object.
This is a low-impact solution where the receiver is only boxed when required. For IC calls to the V8 builtins values are not boxed and as most of the functions on String.prototype, Number.prototype and Boolean.prototype are sitting there most IC calls on values will not need any boxing of the receiver.
For calls which are not IC calls but calls through the CallFunctionStub a flag is used to determine whether the receiver might be a value and only when that is the case will the receiver be boxed.
No changtes to Function.call and Function.apply - they already boxed values. According to the ES5 spec the receiver should not be boxed for these functions, but current browsers have not adopted that change yet.

* Called function is passed on the stack instead of
using a static variable.
* Builtins that don't need the called function don't
get it.
* Made is_construct statically known to HandleApiCall
by setting custom construct stub for API functions.

* Refactor VisitProperty to use the platform-specific methods for emitting the IC calls.
* Refactor recording of source positions in the top-level compiler.
* Correct the recorded source positions for assignments and property loads.
* Fix bug on x64 where source positions were not recorded before a calling a call-IC.
* Correct some inconsistencies between IA-32 and X64 top-level code generator.
We now pass all regression tests with
--always-fast-compiler.

Replace runtime call to NumberAdd with call to binary op stub.
Until now the top-level compiler always called a runtime function
for count operations.
In some places we expected in the JS builtins smis as arguments.
If we perform a count operation before all smis would get converted into
heap numbers by the runtime number add function and result in a runtime
assert.
Also: Add missing debugger information in the top-level compiler for
do-while loops.

When initializing the special local variable containing the reference to the enclosing
function in named functions we now (correctly) emit an INIT_CONST instead of INIT_VAR,
and we correctly bail out in the top-level code generator.
Also part of this change is adding missing statement position information
for some statements in the top-level code generator.

* Rename the operation of filling a context with a value. Formerly it
was 'Move', now it's 'Apply' so as to avoid confusion with various
other Moves (eg, in the toplevel codegen, in the macro assemblers).
* Use the abstraction Drop rather than math on the stack pointer.
* Add a predicate on AST expression nodes to abstract a repeated test
whether we should us a regular (named) IC or a keyed IC.

Added a stub to allocate and fill a string object with a substring from another string.
Use the rep movs instruction to copy the string data as it turned out to be the fastest way.
While preparing this I experimented with some SSE2 instructions, so the instructions movdqa and movdqu are still in the IA-32 assembler even though they are not used.

Calls to RegExp no longer have to be via a call to the runtime system. A new stub have been added which can handle this call in generated code. The stub checks all the parameters and creates RegExp entry frame in the same way as it is created by the runtime system. Bailout to the runtime system is done whenever an uncommon situation is encountered or when the static data used is not initialized. After running the native RegExp code the last match info is updated like in the runtime system.
Currently only ASCII strings are handled.
Added another argument to the RegExp entry frame. It indicated whether the call is direct from JavaScript code or through the runtime system. This information is used when RegExp execution is interrupted. If an interruption happens when RegExp code is called directly a retry is issued causing the interruption to be handled via the runtime system. The reason for this is that the direct call to RegExp code does not support garbage collection.

generator.
The Slot::Type enumeration has four values. It should never be
necessary to use a default to handle the case of a value out of range
of the enumeration. Doing so silences a useful warning when one of
the enumeration values is actually forgotten or when a new enumeration
value is added.

Until now we only supported postfix operations on global variables.
This change add generic count operations to the top-level compiler.
I tried to re-use code from the code generator used for assignment expressions
where possible.

If a function contains more than a certain number of locals (IA32: 9, X64: 6, ARM: 4)
a loop for initializing the locals with 'undefined' is more compact.
For less locals we unroll that loop by emitting a sequence of push instructions.

When generating code for object and array literals we performed
the check if the a boilerplate already exists in generated code.
In the top-level compiler we now do this check in a new runtime
function. This makes the generated code more compact for top-level code.
