a mark-sweep. We have a soft limit on old space size, which is designed to
trigger an old-space collection when we hit it. Unfortunately although the
soft limit had already triggered an old space collection, the soft limit was
preventing objects from new space from being promoted. For every promotion
candidate we were checking 3 different ways to allocate in old space before
giving up and putting the object in the other semispace. This change allows
the promoted objects to go to old space and also makes us more eager to
sweep a page before trying other ways to find space for an object.

We can only call malloc/free once per group and we can avoid scanning
through a list of NULLs if we keep unprocessed groups in the beginning.
I also changed the internal representation of implicit references to
hold a handle to the parent (instead of a direct pointer). The
prologue callback must not trigger a GC, but it's better to be safe.

If object enters NEAR_DEATH state, it must be explicitly cleared and/or disposed, otherwise
it would retain JS object forever. Note as well that parameter is reset to NULL on first
invocation so weak handle callback would be in hard situation.

when using snapshots.
The alignment of new space has to match the alignment in the snapshot,
but the max committed amount of memory does not.
For now, we assume that the default semispace size is always used in a
snapshot.

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.

- Changed WeakReferenceCallback to take a Persistent<Value> instead of
a Persistent<Object>.
- Removed Message::GetUnderline and Message::GetScriptData.
- Added Value::IsDate, Date::Cast and Date::Value.

* Make old_data_space non-executable on OSs and hardware that support it.
* Rename old_space to old_pointer_space (can contain pointers, esp. to new space).
* Ensure that individual pages allocated for old_space are only executable when
they are for code objects.
* Ensure Space::Setup can cope with non-aligned memory.
* Make some methods on Spaces virtual. Make a way to iterate over all spaces.
* Replace executability flag with Executability enum in order to make intent at
call site clearer.
* Fix serialization/deserialization to allocate write barrier memory for large
arrays.

In the shell sample don't print the result of executing a script, only
evaluating expressions.
Fixed issue when building samples on Windows using a shared V8
library. Added visibility option on Linux build which makes the
generated library 18% smaller.
Changed build system to accept multiple build modes in one build and
generate seperate objects, libraries and executables for each mode.
Removed deferred negation optimization (a * -b => -(a * b)) since this
visibly changes operand conversion order.
Improved parsing performance by introducing stack guard in preparsing.
Without a stack guard preparsing always bails out with stack overflow.
