-- layout change for FixedArrays: length is stored as a smis (initial patch by Kevin Millikin)
-- layout change for SharedFunctionInfo: integer fields are stored as smi on arm, ia32 and rearranged on x64.
-- layout change for String: meaning of LSB bit is fliped (1 now means hash not computed); on x64 padding is added.
-- layout of maps is _not_ changed. Map space is currently iterated in a special way.
- Cardmarking write barrier. New barrier handles large objects and normal objects in a similar fashion (no more additional space for pointer tracking is required, no conditional branches in WB code).

This change adds a pass over the AST that computes the
set of assigned variables for locals and parameters for each expression.
The result of this analysis is used to for two purposes:
1. Recognize variables that are trivial subexpressions. A left sub-expression
of a binary operation is trivial if it is a local variable or a parameter
and it is not assigned in the right sub-expression. In the case of a
trivial left sub-expression we evaluate the right first.
Currently only binary operations and compare operations are considered
when finding trivial left sub-expressions.
2. Recogize certain simple for-loops with a constant trip count where the loop
variable is always within smi range. If the loop count variable is not
assigned in the body of the loop (except in the update expression the
for-loop). This allows omitting smi checks on operation using the loop
count variable.

Each frame element gets a new attribute with number type information. A frame element can be:
- smi
- heap number
- number (i.e. either of the above)
- or something else.
The type information is propagated along with all virtual frame operations.
Results popped from the frame carry the number information with them.
Two optimizations in the code generator make use of the new
information:
- GenericBinaryOpSyub omits map checks if input operands are numbers.
- Boolean conversion for numbers: Emit inline code for converting a number (smi or heap number) to boolean. Do not emit call to ToBoolean stub in this case.

All two character string results from adding two strings and from sub string used to be handled in the runtime system as a lookup in the symbol table was done before allocating a new string. The native code for string add and sub string now probes the symbol cache for two character strings to avoid the runtime call. If the result string is not found in the symbol table within a fixed number of probes a new string is just allocated. Newly allocated two character strings are not added to the symbol table immediately.

function instead of baking in the address of the first one that we see
in code.
This removes the need for fixups processing and makes the stubs safe
when there is no natives cache and therefore multiple versions of the
builtin functions.

This is a first step towards loading globals directly from property cells instead
of going through a load IC.
This change supports only properties with the DontDelete attribute since
we are only able to bailout into the generic code generated by the secondary
code generator the beginning of a function. The resulting fast-case code is
specialized for a specific context. When invoked with a different global object,
it will always bailout to the secondary code.
When loading a property that does not exist at compile-time or a property
that is deleteable we still generate the generic load IC.

* 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.

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.

callback load (or keyed load) IC.
The problem was that the IC code calls a stub, which can allocate and
thus trigger a GC if the stub is not already generated. Problem is
solved by adding the ability to "try" to call a stub, trying to
generate the stub code if necessary but signaling an allocation
failure if generating the code is not possible.

This adds a code stub which can do most of what Heap::AllocateConsString can do. It bails out if the result cannot fit in new space or if the result is a short (flat) string and one argument is an ascii string and the other a two byte string. It also bails out if adding two one character strings as Heap::AllocateConsString has special handling of this utilizing the symbol table. The stub is used both for the binary add operation and for StringAdd calls from runtime JavaScript files. Extended the string add test to cover all sizes of flat result stings.

specification under development. The optimizations are patterned after
those previously done for CanvasPixelArray. This CL adds all of the
necessary framework but continues to use the generic KeyedLoadIC and
KeyedStoreIC code, to create a baseline for benchmarking purposes. The
next CL will add the optimized ICs to ic-ia32.cc and ic-x64.cc.
These new CanvasArray types have different semantics than
CanvasPixelArray; out-of-range values are clamped via C cast
semantics, which is cheaper than the clamping behavior specified by
CanvasPixelArray. Out-of-range indices raise exceptions instead of
being silently ignored.
As part of this work, pulled FloatingPointHelper::AllocateHeapNumber
up to MacroAssembler on ia32 and x64 platforms. Slightly refactored
KeyedLoadIC and KeyedStoreIC. Fixed encoding for fistp_d on x64 and
added a few more instructions that are needed for the new ICs. The
test cases in test-api.cc have been verified by hand to exercise all
of the generated code paths in the forthcoming specialized ICs.

Got rid of the debug break on return entry code which did not add anything. It just jumped directly to the debug break on return code.
Removed the CodePatcher class on x64 as it was not implemented.
Added instruction cache flush to where the return sequence was patched on x64.
Added some missing ENABLE_DEBUGGER_SUPPORT #ifdef/#endif.

Objects which require an additional fixed array to be allocated now have this allocated in generated code as well. Added allocation flags to the macro assembler new space allocation routines.
