d0c35af612 Create a new paged heap space for global property cells. The new
space is similar to map space in that it has fixed-size objects.  A
common superclass for a space with fixed size objects is used for the
map space and cell space.

Allocate all cells in cell space.  Handle it during all GCs.  Modify
the free-list node representation (so that the size is not at a fixed
offset in all cells) to allow two-pointer free-list nodes.  Clean up
some stuff in the MC collector.

30a0a7de43 Split nested namespaces declaration in two lines in accordance with C++ Style Guide.
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.

e01f3a9ee8 More special handling of the symbol table during garbage collection.
Mark all objects reachable from the symbols except the symbols
themselves as live (and reachable from strong roots).  This ensures
that if the symbol itself remains alive for any reason, and if it was
a sliced string or cons string backed by an external string, then the
external string will be strongly reachable and therefore not get a
weak reference callback.

59d4539f38 If an external string enters the symbol table, make sure to set the
resource to NULL when removing it from the symbol table.  This makes
sure that the debugger can recognize the external string as being
"deleted".  Now, whenever an external resource is deleted, the
resource pointer is set to NULL.

This is really a workaround of a debugger problem.  We need to make
sure that the debugger only finds scripts in the heap that are
actually live.

8ce3aae482 Workaround for http://crbug.com/9746:
- Added special cutouts if a Vector has NULL data, which will now happen
  if an external string's resource has been deleted.
- Added an verification phase before old gen GC to verify that all real
  entries in the SymbolTable are valid symbols.
- Added test that verifies the correct behaviour of the workaround.

6297a19160 Improve mark-compact object grouping interface.
The main goal was to improve O(n^2) behavior when there are many object groups.  The old API required the grouping to be done on the v8 side, along with a linear search.  The new interface requires the caller to do the grouping, passing V8 entire groups at a time.  This removes the group id concept on the v8 side.

  - Changed AddObjectToGroup to AddObjectGroup.
  - Removed the group id concept from the V8 side.
  - Remove a static constructor while I'm here, lazily initialize
    the object groups list.
  - Cleaned up return by non-const references to return pointers.

77196c5771 This is a new static flag system, designed to have all flags in a central place, and compiled into the binary without requiring static constructors for registration. All flags are moved out of the specific modules and into flags.defs, with different sections for debug, release, etc. The flag variables are always defined. For example, a debug flag in release mode still exists, but is read only and set to the default value.

Changed V8::GetVersion to return the version as a string.

Added source for lazily loaded scripts to snapshots and made serialization non-destructive.

Improved ARM support by fixing the write barrier code to use aligned loads and stores and by removing premature locals optimization that relied on broken support for callee-saved registers (removed).

Refactored the code for marking live objects during garbage collection and the code for allocating objects in paged spaces. Introduced an abstraction for the map word of a heap-allocated object and changed the memory allocator to allocate executable memory only for spaces that may contain code objects.

Moved StringBuilder to utils.h and ScopedLock to platform.h, where they can be used by debugging and logging modules. Added thread-safe message queues for dealing with debugger events.

Fixed the source code reported by toString for certain builtin empty functions and made sure that the prototype property of a function is enumerable.

Improved performance of converting values to condition flags in generated code.

Merged disassembler-{arch} files.
