- The global object has a reference to the current global scope chain.
Running a script adds to the chain if it contains global lexical declarations.
- Scripts are executed relative to a global, not a native context.
- Harmony let and const bindings are allocated to the innermost global context;
var and function still live on the global object.
(Lexical bindings are not reflected on the global object at all,
but that will probably change later using accessors, as for modules.)
- Compilation of scripts now needs a (global) context (previously only eval did).
- The global scope chain represents one logical scope, so collision tests take
the chain into account.

The CompilationInfo record now saves a Zone, and the compiler pipeline
allocates memory from the Zone in the CompilationInfo. Before
compiling a function, we create a Zone on the stack and save a pointer
to that Zone to the CompilationInfo; which then gets picked up and
allocated from.

with more JS code that is loaded into the VM before writing the snapshot. Get
rid of the hard coded limit on the partial snapshot cache size. This change
disables most of the serializer tests for the snapshot build of the VM: It's
getting too complicated to support both booting from a snapshot and then
creating a new snapshot from the same VM or loading more code with another
snapshot in the same VM.

This CL:
- Adds a new trait parameter to LazyInstance to let it initialize the instance
without paying the cost of atomic operations (which are expensive on Mac).
This only works for users who don't care about thread-safety and this is now
the default initialization trait used by LazyInstance in v8.
- Reverts the changes that were made in r11010 in isolate.{cc,h}. That lets
Isolate's accessors be as cheap as they were before (but adds one static initializer).
- Adds OS::PostSetup() used to initialize the math functions which depend on CPU features.
That lets the math functions get rid of CallOnce().

This change includes two CLs by pliard@chromium.org:
1. http://codereview.chromium.org/9447052/ (Add CallOnce() and simple LazyInstance implementation):
Note that this implementation of LazyInstance does not handle global destructors (i.e. the lazy instances are never deleted).
This CL was initially reviewed on codereview.appspot.com:
http://codereview.appspot.com/5687064/
2. http://codereview.chromium.org/9455088/ (Remove static initializers in v8):
This CL depends on CL 9447052 (adding CallOnce and LazyInstance).
It is based on a patch sent by Digit.
With this patch applied, we have only one static initializer left (in atomicops_internals_x86_gcc.cc). This static initializer populates a structure used by x86 atomic operations. It seems that we can hardly remove it. If possible, it will be removed in a next CL.
This CL also modifies the presubmit script to check the number of static initializers.

Lots of web pages have really frequently firing timers that keep the
profiler thread spinning if we require a period of JS inactivity
before suspending the profiler. While it's possible to throttle it by
increasing the sleep delay and adjusting the duration of the required
inactive period, it seemed much simpler to just stop it immediately on
exiting JS.
Stopping the profiler this way effectively turned off two optimization
heuristics: 1) eager optimization (it's reset on waking up the
profiler and now the profiler wakes up much more frequently) and 2)
optimization throttling based on JS to non-JS state ratio (the ratio
is now 100%). I removed these two heuristics and found no performance
regressions so far.

Thread class was receiving an isolate parameter by default.
This approact violates the assumption that only VM threads
can have an associated isolate, and can lead to troubles,
because accessing the same isolate from different threads
leads to race conditions.
This was found by investigating mysterious failures of the
CPU profiler layout test on Linux Chromium. As almost all
threads were associated with some isolate, the sampler was
trying to sample them.
As a side effect, we have also fixed the DebuggerAgent test.
Thanks to Vitaly for help in fixing isolates handling!

Switched to using binary low-level log instead of the textual log used
by the ticks processor. The binary log contains code-related events,
code object names, and their bodies. When writing to the log we ask
glibc to use a larger buffer. To avoid complex processing of the
snapshot log (which is still textual) the serializer emits final
snapshot position to code name mappings that can be quickly be read
without replaying the snapshot log. (This might be useful for the
ticks processor.)

The ScannerConstants class was originally static fields on the scanner class.
During creation of the stand-alone preparser and later isolates, it has been
moved into a separate class with a per-isolate instance.
It is used to hold caching unicode Predicate values.
This change renames the class to UnicodeCache, and passes a reference
to the instance down to methods that doesn't have an easy access to
an isolate (to avoid, e.g., having to do an Isolate::Current() for every
number parsed).

Correctly process failures which can be returned by Object::GetProperty
when performing GetRealNamedProperty* queries.
Callback properties can produce exceptions so we need to wrap access to them
into exception checks. However, despite of many other methods with exception
checks, property access doesn't mandatroy go via JavaScript and hence we
need to inject code to propagate exception to public API TryCatch handlers.

This commit adds current working versions of assembler, macro-assembler,
disassembler, and simulator.
All other mips arch files are replaced with stubbed-out versions that
will build.
Arch independent files are updated as needed to support building and

The only test is cctest/test-assembler-mips, and this passes on the
