With the current API the embedder has to extrenalize a string each
time a string is encountered to avoid the cost of repeated character
copying/conversion. The issue here is that the externalization cost
itself is non-negligible (both in time and space) and should not be
paid for a rarely used string. This change is an attempt to predict a
string's usage frequency based on its freshness. A string is
considered fresh if it was recently allocated in the new space.

This change add simple local live variable information to
the fast code generator. It supports only AST nodes that
are accepted by the syntax checker.
Each variable use points to a variable definition structure
which contains the last use of the definition.
To determine whether a variable is live after a certain point
we can check whether its last use occurs later in the evaluation
order defined by the AST labeling number.
The new information is currently only printed out together with
the IR and not yet used for code generation.

Do not use the speculative compiler for functions with other than one
statement in the body, and do not use it if subexpressions can have
side effects. Bailing out to the beginning of the full code is not
sound if side effects have already occurred.
Add tests that would fail without the restrictions.

Support a binary operation (bitwise OR) so long as it's not nested in
the left subexpression. This ensures that the expression stack never
has height greater than two and so can be kept fully in registers.
The bounded expression stack height and the absence of any side
effects on the fast path allows us to still bailout out to the very
beginning of the function if any of our fast-path checks fail.

on functions that takes five or more arguments. Original version runs
for a long time when there is 5 arguments in a runtime function (45+
seconds). The fuzzer can be run with all arguments on all functions
regardless of the number of arguments by setting
RUN_WITH_ALL_ARGUMENT_ENTRIES to true in fuzz-natives.js

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.

this causes the debug check to fails since type() asserts that the
lookup_type != NOT_FOUND. This does not change any functionality since we
explicitly checked if it was one of the three types that we need to delete.
Also changed defineProperties in v8natives to actually return the object
being defined (as specified by spec)

DefineOwnProperty (changed to allow for redefinition of existing property)
SameValue
Extra info on propertydescriptor
GetProperty
HasProperty
Currently the DefineOrRedefineAccessorProperty deletes the existing
property on the object if it is a dataproperty (FIELD or NORMAL) and
adds a new one. This can potentially be optimized.

When functions only have simple assignments of the form this.x = ... the object is created in generated code without actually calling the constructor. In this case the initial map for the function already contains the properties assigned in the constructor. The field descriptors in this initial map now has an enumeration index assigned to make property enumeration order the insertion order. The insertion order here is the order of the this.x assignments in the code.

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 the start index is already passed it is easy to calculate the "at start" boolean in generated code. Also as direct entry has been implemented this needs to be done in generated code anyway, and therefore might as well be moved to the generated code for RegExp. The "at start" value is now calcualted as a local variable on the native RegExp frame based on the value of the start index argument.
The x64 version have been tested on both Linux and 64-bit Windows Vista.
For ARM I have tested cctest/test-regexp on ARM hardware, but the rest of the tests have only been run on the ARM simulator.
