3e8539d873 First step of refactoring expression contexts in the toplevel code
generator.

Contexts are no longer stored in the AST but in the code generator's
state.  This means that the running the code generator selector is not
required to use the toplevel code generator (for instance, if we
already know that we can and should use it).

9095abb776 Introduce 'top-of-stack caching' to the toplevel code generator by
allowing the value of the rightmost subexpressions to be evaluated
into an accumulator register (eg, eax, rax, or r0) rather than onto
the stack.

1cc579ff4e Fix issue 541 and some refactoring of the top-level compiler.
* 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.

acf74b04a7 Fix a problem when compiling built-ins with the top-level 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.

39b9f57f19 Cleanup the handling of control flow in the toplevel code generator.
Do abstract the setting and restoring of 'argument' state into a
function that takes arguments.

Do not set the argument state in the code generator unless it
represents arguments to a recursive call to Visit.

fdba189730 Fix a problem with const initialization in the top-level code generator.
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.

f0b8c2d97a Some cleanup of the toplevel 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.

b74daccff0 Style cleanup of switches over Slot::Type in the nonoptimizing code
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.

7a3a043eb2 Refactor code for generating assignments in the fast compiler.
1. Refactor the structure of VisitAssignment: The existing code is not ideal 
to be extended with support for compound assignments.

2. Reuse common code for keyed property assigments: Now variables rewritten 
to a property (.arguments access) are treated like normal keyed property
assignments. This allows us to remove some code duplication.

091c7a2306 Fixed bug in while-loops that caused an assertion to fail.
We forgot resetting true-/false-label to NULL after evaluating the 
condition expression in dowhile- and while-loops. 
This change fixes this.

This causes an assertion to fail in VisitIfStatement whenever there is an 
if-statement after a while-loop before. e.g. like in:

  var i=0, j=0;
  while(j<5) { j++; }
  if (i ==0 ) { j++; }

directly-applied function literals that are themselves compiled with

The choice is guarded by a test that the function is anonymous (thus
not expected to be recursive) and not in a loop.

A compilation hint is set in the shared function info and used to make
the choice.

ab3e85eeb4 Initial implementation of top-level compilation of expressions in test
context.  Test contexts are used for the left subexpressions of
short-circuited boolean operators.  The right subexpressions inherit
their expression context from the binary op expression.

Compilation of short-circuited operations in effect and test context
is straightforward:

effect(e0 || e1) =
 test(e0, L0, L1)
 L1: effect(e1)
 L0:

test(e0 || e1, L0, L1) =
 test(e0, L0, L2)
 L2: test(e1, L0, L1)

Because the value of the first subexpression may be needed as the
value of the whole expression in a value context, we introduce a
hybrid value/test contest (the value is needed if true, but not if
false).

value(e0 || e1) =
 value/test(e0, L0, L1)
 L1: value(e1)
 L0:

The compilation of value/test and test/value (introduced by boolean
AND) is:

value/test(e0 || e1, L0, L1) =
 value/test(e0, L0, L2)
 L2: value/test(e1, L0, L1)

test/value(e0 || e1, L0, L1) =
 test(e0, L0, L2)
 L2: test/value(e1, L0, L1)

Boolean AND is the dual.  The AST nodes themselves (not their parents)
are responsible for producing the proper result (effect, value, or
control flow) depending on their context.

76e1e22f15 Eliminate the constant location used for literals in the AST.
Literals now have a location of temporary by default and are
responsible for moving themselves into their location like all other
expressions.

The constant location turned out not to allow us to avoid checking
subexpressions in AST interior nodes, and it turned out to require
checking after some normal calls to Visit (like for the arguments to a
call).  With this change do not have to check after a call to Visit
that we got our result in the expected location.

e82a07c0bd Simple toplevel code generator support for short-circuited boolean OR
in a non-test (ie, value or effect) context.  (It is implicitly not in
a test context because the code generator does not support expressions
in a test context yet.)

Compilation is essentially the same as in the optimized code
generator.  The expression (e0 || e1) is compiled as if it were
(let (temp = e0) temp ? temp : e1).

On ia32 and x64 a single shared ToBoolean stub is used to convert a
value to a flag.  The inlined checks assumed by the stub are reordered
to compare to undefined (the common case in toplevel code?) first.  On
ARM a call to the runtime is used.  In the interest of code size no
checks are yet inlined on ARM.

fbc0eaa13d Added support for array literals to the toplevel compiler. They are
currently compiled the same as with the optimizing compiler: they are
cloned from a boilerplate object and the boilerplate objects are
lazily constructed.

Also changed argument pushing on ARM to use stm (store multiple),
which required changing the order of arguments to the runtime
functions DeclareGlobals and NewClosure.  They were only used from
generated code.

Finally, changed the toplevel code generator so that stack pops to
discard a temporary became addition to the stack pointer on ia32 and
x64.

ee9d2d6cee Fast compiler support for regexp literals.
For .result = /abc.*/g we generate the following IA-32 code:

   ...
   mov ebx,[edi+0x17]
   mov eax,[ebx+0xb]
   cmp eax, 0xf5d0e135         ;; object: 0xf5d0e135 <undefined>
   jnz done
   push ebx
   push 0x2
   push 0xf5d13805             ;; object: 0xf5d13805 <String[5]: abc.*>
   push 0xf5d13815             ;; object: 0xf5d13815 <String[1]: g>
   call RuntimeStub_MaterializeRegExpLiteral
 done:
   push eax
   pop [ebp+0xf4]
   ...

This is very similar to the code previously generated except we do not 
generate deferred code for the case where we call the runtime.

On ARM we use the stm instruction to make pushing the arguments more compact.

846688f825 Recognize in the fast-mode code generator when a subexpression is a
constant known at compile time.  Do not ever use the stack to
materialize (non-function-argument) constants.  Currently, constants
are only the non-materialized, non-function literals in the AST.

It is a known issue that there is no test coverage for the cases of
assigning a non-literal to a variable and returning a literal.  Those
code paths are unreachable and tests will be added when they become
reachable.

For the code '.result = true', we had previously on ia32:

27  push 0xf5c28161             ;; object: 0xf5c28161 <true>
32  pop [ebp+0xf4]

Now:

27  mov eax,0xf5c26161          ;; object: 0xf5c26161 <true>
32  mov [ebp+0xf4],eax

======== We had previously on x64:

25  movq r10,0x7fb8c2f78199    ;; object: 0x7fb8c2f78199 <true>
35  push r10
37  pop [rbp-0x18]

Now:

25  movq r10,0x7fb131386199    ;; object: 0x7fb131386199 <true>
35  movq [rbp-0x18],r10

The generated code for ARM did not include the extra memory traffic.
It was already eliminated by the ARM assembler's push/pop elimination.

0f5210e9dd Do not visit slots in the top-level code generator's backend.
Slots appear only indirectly in the AST (through variables linked to
variable proxies).  Slots are shared among variable references, so
putting compilation-time state on them is potentially a source of
bugs.  Avoid it for now.

339e49c0b2 Added first support for tracking locations of expressions in the
fast-mode code generator.

AST expression nodes are annotated with a location when doing the
initial syntactic check of the AST.  In the current implementation,
expression locations are 'temporary' (ie, allocated to the stack) or
'nowhere' (ie, the expression's value is not needed though it must be
evaluated for side effects).

For the assignment '.result = true' on IA32, we had before (with the
true value already on top of the stack):

32  mov eax,[esp]
35  mov [ebp+0xf4],eax
38  pop eax

Now:

32  pop [ebp+0xf4]


======== On x64, before:

37  movq rax,[rsp]
41  movq [rbp-0x18],rax
45  pop rax

Now:

37  pop [rbp-0x18]


======== On ARM, before (with the true value in register ip):

36  str ip, [sp, #-4]!
40  ldr ip, [sp, #+0]
44  str ip, [fp, #-12]
48  add sp, sp, #4

Now:

36  str ip, [fp, #-12]
