We do not have a GlobalContext class.
We do, however, have a SerializedScopeInfo class that inherits FixedArray.
Starting comment is also slightly misleading, since not all objects in the hierarchy is described in objects.h (e.g., Context is described in contexts.h).

The static ScopeInfo members moved into this class.
The new class is named ScopeInfoObject which I am not proud of,
better ideas are very welcome.
Also got rid of the sentinels in the serialized scope info which saves 3 words per function
and is not slower.

Use virtually dispatched specialized scavengers instead of single generic ScavengeObjectSlow implementation.
Rollback of r5041 with assertion checking callback alignment removed. Map space is iterated in a special fashion during scavenges so special callback alignment is not required.

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,
and wave seems to indicate that this is not a real problem.

This changes the way the constants kJSObjectType, kFirstNonstringType and kProxyType are made available to the inlined part of the V8 API. This change to fixed constants resolves linker this linker error Windows
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: static int v8::internal::Internals::kJSObjectType" (?kJSObjectType@Internals@internal@v8@@2HA)
when linking against a V8 DLL.
This change also makes it possible to build all the C++ tests with ENABLE_DEBUGGER_SUPPORT not defined. Now C++ tests run ENABLE_DEBUGGER_SUPPORT not defined, and only the JavaScript tests which tests the debugger fails when ENABLE_DEBUGGER_SUPPORT is not defined.

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
bit is added to instance type. This bit is used as a hint in generated
code and in runtime functions.
To enable testing a new V8 extension is added controlled by
--expose-externalize-string flag.

This adds an additional step to full gc, removing code from functions
that are no longer in the compilation cache. The code is replaced with
a lazy compile version enabling us to recompile the function in case
we do actually need it again.

These string methods can be composed from two basic blocks: charCodeAt
and fromCharCode, both of which have fast cases for certain types of
inputs. In this patch these two blocks are refactored to allow
generating the fast cases without having to jump around the slow
cases. In the slow cases since they can now be invoked both from
inline runtime functions and from IC stubs we either have to
save/restore state of the current frame or enter/leave a new internal
frame. This is handled by new RuntimeCallHelper interface. Its
implementation for virtual frame is based on FrameRegisterState class
extracted from DeferredCode class.

- 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.)

* 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.
