The collector class automatically expands to hold the values added to it,
like a List, but doesn't ensure that the backing store is contiguous, which
allows it to avoid copying back and forth as the buffer grows.
This is in preparation for identifyng identical symbols during preparsing.

Object model changes
----------------------------------------
New fixed_cow_array_map is used for the elements array of a JSObject
to mark it as COW. The JSObject's map and other fields are not
affected. The JSObject's map still has the "fast elements" bit set. It
means we can do only the receiver map check in keyed loads and the
receiver and the elements map checks in keyed stores. So introducing
COW arrays doesn't hurt performance of these operations. But note that
the elements map check is necessary in all mutating operations because
the "has fast elements" bit now means "has fast elements for reading".
EnsureWritableFastElements can be used in runtime functions to perform
the necessary lazy copying.
Generated code changes
----------------------------------------
Generic keyed load is updated to only do the receiver map check (this
could have been done earlier). FastCloneShallowArrayStub now has two
modes: clone elements and use COW elements. AssertFastElements macro
is added to check the elements when necessary. The custom call IC
generators for Array.prototype.{push,pop} are updated to avoid going
to the slow case (and patching the IC) when calling the builtin should
work.
COW enablement
----------------------------------------
Currently we only put shallow and simple literal arrays in the COW
mode. This is done by the parser.

in allowing more flexible compilation and to simplify builtins lookup.
This changes a number of places where code objects are assigned to
SharedFunctionInfo objects to also assign this code object to the
JSFunction. In addition, the code flushing is changed slightly to
accomodate this (we need to flush the code from functions pointing to
SharedFunctionInfo objects that has already been flushed).

Smis so we don't get spurious heap numbers as inputs to binary ops

A potential issue with this change is creating lots of maps when
objects flip between fast/slow elements modes. We could add special
transitions to avoid this. Yet testing this on our benchmarks, gmail,

If a two-byte string only contains ascii characters, then we can save
memory when flattening a cons string containing it. Similarly we can
use this in Array.prototype.join implementation. To track this a new

With the change in r4820 all return statements are now breakable like any statement, so stepping will stop before the return statement actually returning from a function. With this change the position when breaking in the function return (after executing the return statement) will be the actual end of the function. At this point the return value is available as it saved to the stack by the debug break at return handling. Added information on the actual value returned from the function to the debugger.

This fix adds support for retriving a property descriptor on elements. The
new version supports both fast and slow case elements. In the fast case
we always default configurable, writable, enumerable to true (we don't have
PropertyDetails for fast elements).

Object.defineProperty.

Fix for issue 603.
Revision r3484 removed the property name from the call stack for
call ICs. When a non-function was called via a call IC and
Function.prototype.call, an extra value was left on the stack that the
caller could not know to clean up.
Fix is to change the JS builtin used for calling non-functions. It
now gets the callee as receiver, rather than iterating stack frames
and finding it on the expression stack of its JS caller.

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.

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.
