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.

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.

Generating code for function return on ARM is now aligned with the other platforms. The first non-shadowed return statement encountered will emit code for function return and all other returns including the fall through at the bottom of a function will jump to that.

NumberToUint32 that I was trying to use maps -0 to +0 (as desired) but
also maps +/-Infinity to +0, which made +/-Infinity a valid string

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

Chromium build.
v8.gyp no longer sets any V8_TARGET_ARCH_* macro on the Mac. Instead, the
proper V8_TARGET_ARCH_* macro will be set by src/globals.h in the same way as
the V8_HOST_ARCH_* macro when it detects that no target macro is currently
defined. The Mac build will attempt to compile all ia32 and x86_64 .cc files.
#ifdef guards in each of these target-specific source files prevent their
compilation when the associated target is not selected. For completeness,
these #ifdef guards are also provided for the arm and mips .cc files.

A reference to the caches array was embedded directly into the builtin
code and this allowed sharing objects between contexts.
Unfortunately, clearing the cache on GC won't prevent sharing so we
either have to have per-context builtin code or load the cache
indirectly from the current context. This change implements the second
approach. The first approach may be interesting to consider in the
future for some perfomance critical functions, and the current
approach can still be improved by putting the caches directly into the
global context (or even global objects).

In the CEntryStub keep track of the actual skew from the correct alignment to ensure proper alignment before calling the runtime. Add checks to test the expected skew when running on hardware.
Use the PrepareCallCFunction/CallCFunction in a few other places.
Add check to the ARM simulator for correct alignment.
Add option --sim-stack-alignment to set the stack alignment in the simulator. Currntly only values 4 and 8 makes sense. 8 is the default to make snapshots generated with the simulator work on hardware requiring 8 byte stack alignment.

Instead of testing the value of a constant frame element to determine
the type we compute its type information at construction time.

Previously we marked compare operations that occurred as for loop
conditions so as to avoid inlining the floating-point code for them.

Inline floating point compare instead of calling the stub when the following conditions are met:
* Code is in a loop
* Compare is not a for loop condition
* Compare is not an equal comparison
This inlined code handles heap number to heap number and heap number to smi compare. It can also handle smi to smi compare, but whenever there is a chance of comparing two smis the smi compare is inlined before the inlined floating point compare. Support for non SSE2 hardware is included.
A new set of variants of the compare stub without the floating point comparison code is called if the inline comapre fails due to the operands not beeing heap numbers or smis.
The virtual frame has been extended with a branch taking two live results to be carried through to the destination. This makes this change much simpler as the inlined code have two live results in registers and a number of bailouts.
CompareStub::GetName needs to be updated as well. I will do that as a separate change.
Also inlined equality check if both operands can't be NaN. This can only provide positive equals if it is the same object.

We may encounter an invalid frame after generating code
for the loop body in case the loop body ends in an unconditional

This change adds a pass over the AST that computes the
set of assigned variables for locals and parameters for each expression.
The result of this analysis is used to for two purposes:
1. Recognize variables that are trivial subexpressions. A left sub-expression
of a binary operation is trivial if it is a local variable or a parameter
and it is not assigned in the right sub-expression. In the case of a
trivial left sub-expression we evaluate the right first.
Currently only binary operations and compare operations are considered
when finding trivial left sub-expressions.
2. Recogize certain simple for-loops with a constant trip count where the loop
variable is always within smi range. If the loop count variable is not
assigned in the body of the loop (except in the update expression the
for-loop). This allows omitting smi checks on operation using the loop
count variable.

generators. The primary adds a description to the list for each

Responsibility for binding labels is moved from the primary to the

secondary code and the compilation state of the primary is still
ignored.

Add a (currently) syntactic predicate to AST expression nodes telling
whether they are 'trivial'. Trivial expressions have no side effects,
do not require storage to be allocated for them, and can be evaluated
out of order (because their value does not change between when they
are visited by the code generator as expressions in the AST and when
it is consumed).
Mark 'this' and literals as trivial. Allow them to be pushed on the
virtual frame. Make use of them to push 'this' more lazily in this
property assignments.

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.

Currently we only pass a boolean parameter indicating whether
the input operands to the GenericBinaryOpStub are guaranteed
to be numbers or not.
Instead we pass the complete number type as a parameters. This

Also make the computation of the result type more precise and correct on both ia32 and x64.
