- New сardmarking write 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).
- Changes to enable oldspaces iteration without maps decoding:
-- 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.

Currently one can only define accessors on object templates. This patch
allows to create accessors on the fly.
These accessors could control access to elements as well. This element
support is somewhat rudimentary and may require future work (for example,
we probably don't want to convert index into a string.)

Changing ScriptData API to serialize its internal representation to a
const char* array.
This decouples the API from the internal representation and avoids the need for
callers to serialize themselves.
As a side-effect, ScriptData::New() no longer assumes ownership of its input.
This shouldn't matter as typical usage patterns for the old API would have
required a copy prior to calling ScriptData::New().

* Faster hashing for sequential strings.
* When adding short external two-byte strings try to convert them
back to ascii. Chances are high the embedder uses two-byte
representation even for ascii strings. This optimization saves
memory and makes hashing faster.

A separate object type for the code cache have been added. This object has two different code caches. The first one (default_cache) is a fixed array organized in the same way as the as the code cache was before. The second cache (global_access_cache) is for code stubs to access the global object. This cache is organized as a hash table taking the property name and code flags as the key.
The reason for separating the global access stubs into a hash table representation is that the number of these is not bounded in the same was as the other types.
This is a remake of r3952 (http://codereview.chromium.org/652119) which have the additional ability to look for the index of code stubs for access to the global object.

No need to create sub strings for lazy compiles. The scanner will start from the start position provided.
Moved the creating of character streams into the scanner where possible. This uses a input buffer in the scanner class instead of a stack allocated one.
Added a UTF16 buffer for reading external ascii strings (by templating the external two byte string one) as all the source for the builtins are exposed as external ascii strings.

Replaced IsValid by IsPropertyOrTransition and used IsProperty in most
of the places where IsValid was used before. Most of the time when
inspecting a lookup result we really want to know if there is a real
property present. Only for stores are we interested in transitions.

Moved all the logic to a function on SharedFunctionInfo (including the flag check) to make things more readable.
Changed the check for setter to do a lookup for a named setter for each of the properties assigned in the constructor.
Added tests using accessors and interseptors set through the API.
Added fast case objects to the mjsunit test.

Simple objects which are constructed without calling the actual constructor function did not take setters defined on prototype chain of the new object into account.
Constructing objects this way is now not done if there are setters involved on the prototype chain of the new object.
This only fixes the case where the setter is found when the first object from a constructor is created. If the prototype chain is changed new objects will on take any change to setters into account.

1. Avoid using SKIP_WRITE_BARRIER when we don't have to (smis).
2. Check and document the remaining uses of SKIP_WRITE_BARRIER.
3. Only allow GetWriteBarrierMode when in an AssertNoAllocation scope.
The only functional change should be in DeepCopyBoilerplate where we
no longer use the write barrier mode (because of allocations). I'm
running benchmarks to see if this has a measurable impact on performance.

The different length string types was used to encode the string length and the hash in one field. This is now split into two fields one for length and one for hash. The hash field still encodes the array index of the string if it has one. If an array index is encoded in the hash field the string length is added to the top bits of the hash field to avoid a hash value of zero.
On 32-bit this causes an additional 4 bytes to be used for all string objects. On 64-bit this will be half on average dur to pointer alignment.
