634fb9152c More precise break points and stepping when debugging
Added support for more precise break points when debugging and stepping. To achieve that additional nop instructions are inserted where breaking would otherwise be impossible. The number of nop instructions inserted are sufficient to make place for patching with a call to a debug break code stub. On Intel that is 5 nop's for 32-bit and 13 for 64-bit. Om ARM 3 nop instructions (12 bytes) are required.

In order to avoid inserting nop's in to many places a simple ast checker have been added to check whether there are breakable code in a statement or expression. If it is possible to break in an expression no additional break enabeling code is inserted.

Added break locations to the true and false part of a conditional expression.

Added stepping tests to cover more constructs.

These changes are only in the full compiler.

Changed the default value for the option --debugger in teh d8 shell from true to false. The reason for this is that with --debugger turned on the full compiler will be used for all code in when running d8, which can be unexpeceted.

c80cba3bcc Add the for statement back into the set of things the
non-optimizing compiler can cope with.  By default it bails out
to the old compiler on encountering a for loop (for performance)
but with this change the --always-fast-compiler flag will enable
functions with for loops to be compiled in the non-optimizing
compiler.  Also enables the non-optimizing compiler on functions
that can be lazily compiled (again only with the flag).

d131ecf3dd Changed the debugger API to allow only one debug event listener to be registered. The public API now only has SetDebugEventListener instead of AddDebugEventListener and RemoveDebugEventListener.
Moved the registrered debug event listener from the context to a global handle in the Debugger class. Storing it in the context did not make much sense.

Changed a lot of tests to handle the API change.

c42f5829a1 Included mjsunit JavaScript test suite and C++ unit tests.
In the shell sample don't print the result of executing a script, only
evaluating expressions.

Fixed issue when building samples on Windows using a shared V8
library.  Added visibility option on Linux build which makes the
generated library 18% smaller.

Changed build system to accept multiple build modes in one build and
generate seperate objects, libraries and executables for each mode.

Removed deferred negation optimization (a * -b => -(a * b)) since this
visibly changes operand conversion order.

Improved parsing performance by introducing stack guard in preparsing.
Without a stack guard preparsing always bails out with stack overflow.
