We also initialize the Isolate on creation.
This should allow for getting rid of the last remaining default isolate
traces. Also, it'll speed up several isolate related operations that no
longer require locks.
Embedders that relied on v8::Isolate to return an uninitialized Isolate
(so they can set ResourceConstraints for example, or set flags that
modify the way the isolate is created) should either do the setup before
creating the isolate, or use the recently added CreateParams to pass e.g.
ResourceConstraints.

[Re-retry of r21696 and r21739]
If the embedder chooses, the 'natives' (library sources) and the
precompiled startup blob can be written to files during the build
process and handed over to V8 at startup. The main purpose would be
to reduce the size of the compiled binary for space constrained
platforms.
The build-time option is off by default. Nothing should change if
it's not enabled.

the speed of deserializing code. The current startup
time improvement for V8 is around 6%, but code deserialization
is speeded up disproportionately, and we will soon have more
code in the snapshot.
* Removed support for deserializing into large object space.
The regular pages are 1Mbyte now and that is plenty. This
is a big simplification.
* Instead of reserving space for the snapshot we actually
allocate it now. This removes some special casing from
the memory management and simplifies deserialization since
we are just bumping a pointer rather than calling the
normal allocation routines during deserialization.
* Record in the snapshot how much we need to boot up and
allocate it instead of just assuming that allocations in
a new VM will always be linear.
* In the snapshot we always address an object as a negative
offset from the current allocation point. We used to
sometimes address from the start of the deserialized data,
but this is less useful now that we have good support for
roots and repetitions in the deserialization data.
* Code objects were previously deserialized (like other
objects) by alternating raw data (deserialized with memcpy)
and pointers (to external references, other objects, etc.).
Now we deserialize code objects with a single memcpy,
followed by a series of skips and pointers that partially
overwrite the code we memcopied out of the snapshot.
The skips are sometimes merged into the following
instruction in the deserialization data to reduce dispatch
time.
* Integers in the snapshot were stored in a variable length
format that gives a compact representation for small positive
integers. This is still the case, but the new encoding can
be decoded without branches or conditional instructions,
which is faster on a modern CPU.

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 is for mobile platforms where application footprint size is
important. To avoid including compression libraries into V8, we assume
that the host machine have them (true for Linux), and rely on embedder
to provide decompressed data.
Currently, only snapshot data can be comressed. It is also possible to
compress libraries sources, but it is more involved and will be
addressed in another CL.

objects in the startup heap from a partial snapshot. This happens
through the partial snapshot cache. A startup snapshot and a
partial snapshot are created together so that the startup snapshot
contains the partial snapshot cache entries needed.

As this is only needed for internal profiling (not for DevTools),
the following approach had been chosen:
- during snapshot creation, positions of serialized objects inside
a snapshot are logged;
- then during V8 initialization, positions of deserealized objects
are logged;
- those positions are used for retrieving code objects names from
snapshot creation log, which needs to be supplied to tick processor
script.
Positions logging is controlled with the new flag: --log_snapshot_positions.
This flag is turned off by default, and this adds no startup penalty.
To plug this fix to Golem, the following actions are needed:
- logs created using 'mksnapshot' need to be stored along with VM images;
- tick processor script needs to be run with '--snapshot-log=...' cmdline
argument.

This issue was raised by Brett Wilson while reviewing my changelist for readability. Craig Silverstein (one of C++ SG maintainers) confirmed that we should declare one namespace per line. Our way of namespaces closing seems not violating style guides (there is no clear agreement on it), so I left it intact.

Allowed aliased eval invocations by treating them as evals in the global context. This may change in the future.
Added support for accessing the last entered context through the API and renamed Context::Current to Context::GetCurrent and Context::GetSecurityContext to Context::GetCurrentSecurityContext.
Fixed bug in the debugger that would cause the debugger scripts to be recursively loaded and changed all disabling of interrupts to be block-structured.
Made snapshot data read-only to allow it to be more easily shared across multiple users of V8 when linked as a shared library.
