Note that changes on the prototype chain should already be handled by
StubCompiler::CheckPrototypes, if not, it is a bug there and not in
LookupForWrite. Furthermore, neither test262 nor WebKit layout tests hint at a
compability issue, so it should be safe to remove a redundant check.
The good point about this CL: It improves Box2D's performance by 22%.

The LastAdded points to the descriptor that was last added to the array. From the descriptor we can deduce the NextEnumerationIndex. This allows us to quickly find the property that we are transitioning to, which is necessary for transition-intensive code, eg JSON parsing.

In this design maps contain descriptor arrays, which in turn can contain transition arrays. If transitions are needed when no descriptor array is present, a descriptor array without real descriptors is inserted just so it can point at the transition array.
The transition array does not contain details about the field it transitions to. In order to weed out transitions to FIELDs from CONSTANT_FUNCTION (what used to be MAP_TRANSITION vs CONSTANT_TRANSITION), the transition needs to be followed and the details need to be looked up in the target map. CALLBACKS transitions are still easy to recognize since the transition targets are stored as an AccessorPair containing the maps, rather than the maps directly.
Currently AccessorPairs containing a transition and an accessor are shared between the descriptor array and the transition array. This simplifies lookup since we only have to look in one of both arrays. This will change in subsequent revisions, when descriptor arrays will become shared between multiple maps, since transitions cannot be shared.

Instead of overwriting non-live transitions with NULL_DESCRIPTORs, we remove them from the array by compacting the array (shifting live values to the left) and in-place trimming the array. If the final descriptor array contains no live values (only contained transitions which are now all cleared), we move bit_field3 back from the descriptor array to the map. The descriptor array itself will be collected in the next GC.

- Ensure that IsFound() is only used when not in combination with other
checks. To do so, the default type is NONEXISTENT rather than NORMAL;
and NotFound() also resets the type to NONEXISTENT.
- Use test methods rather than .type() == A_PROPERTY_TYPE.

Some GWT compiled code results in array access that has a heap number (e.g. -0)
as an index. Until now this would result in a generic IC.
For example:
a[-0] === a[0] or
a[0.25 * 4] === a[1]
This change detects heap numbers that are representable as a smi
and converts them. As a result we can still use the fast keyed monomorphic
ICs. Optimized code already handles keyed access with a double-key efficiently.
As a result the frame rate on the reported benchmark improves by roughly 2x.

This refactors the way we (re)define elements to perform normalization
and attribute updating at a much deeper level, thereby removing some
bogus special cases in upper runtime layers.
Most element setters take an indicator flag that distinguishes between
setting and defining. Setting of an element causes attributes to remain
unchanged, writability to be checked and callbacks to be called.
Defining of an element causes attributes to be updated and callbacks to
be overridden. The same approach could be taken for properties.

Yak shaving for map sharing with accessor properties contd.: When CALLBACKS can
have map transitions, simply looking at the property type is not sufficient
anymore to decide if a property is there or not. One has to look at the actual
contents of the descriptor entry then, but this breaks down sometimes when the
lookup is being done with a NULL holder. Luckily enough, we can oftren replace
IsProperty by the simpler IsFound, because we inspect the type immediately
afterwards, anyway.

This introduces an additional check into the StoreIC_ArrayLength builtin
checking that the array still has fast properties. Redifinitions of the
length property that would cause it's type or attributes to change, will
switch to slow properties, thereby invalidating said optimization.

Now with arm and x64 support. Additionally, added default unreachable case to switch statement in CompareIC::TargetState to make win and mac compilers happy.
Reviewer guide:
This is an exact copy of 10216 except:
src/arm/*
src/x64/*
src/ic.cc (added default case to swith in CompareIC::TargetState)

This includes specialcasing the generation when we know that the maps
of the two objects are the same. In addition, a new specialized
compare ic known objects cache is created.
The reason for the cache is that we need to have access to the stub
code from the roots; if we do not, the GC will collect the stub. In
this specialized case we use the map pointer as key in the cache, and
we always do a lookup before generating code. Actually hitting
something in the cache will happen very rarely, but we could
potentially overwrite an existing stub, which again will lead to the
GC collecting this old stub (even if it is referenced from other code
objects)

This CL introduces a third mode next to the non-strict
(henceforth called 'classic mode') and 'strict mode'
which is called 'extended mode' as in the current
ES.next specification drafts. The extended mode is based on
the 'strict mode' and adds new functionality to it. This
means that most of the semantics of these two modes
coincide.
The 'extended mode' is entered instead of the 'strict mode'
during parsing when using the 'strict mode' directive
"use strict" and when the the harmony-scoping flag is
active. This should be changed once it is fully specified how the 'extended mode' is entered.
This change introduces a new 3 valued enum LanguageMode
(see globals.h) corresponding to the modes which is mostly
used by the frontend code. This includes the following
components:
* (Pre)Parser
* Compiler
* SharedFunctionInfo, Scope and ScopeInfo
* runtime functions: StoreContextSlot,
ResolvePossiblyDirectEval, InitializeVarGlobal,
DeclareGlobals
The old enum StrictModeFlag is still used in the backend
when the distinction between the 'strict mode' and the 'extended mode' does not matter. This includes:
* SetProperty runtime function, Delete builtin
* StoreIC and KeyedStoreIC
* StubCache

Do not rely on 'default' clauses or 'if's when analysing a PropertyType, because
this makes it hard to find the relevant places when a new type is added. Note
that the detection of "phantom property types" is left untouched, because this
might have a performance impact, especially for the GC (to be investigated).
This is a preliminary step for introducing a new kind of map transition.
