The approach is to handle the common case in the optimizing
compiler and to bailout for the rare corner cases.
This is done by initializing all local const-variables with
the hole value and disallowing any use of the hole value statically.

Only IA32 version for now. I'll start porting.
Strict mode functions are to get 'undefined' as the receiver when
called with an implicit receiver. Modes are bad! It forces us to have
checks on all function calls.
This change attempts to limit the cost by passing information about
whether or not a call is with an implicit or explicit receiver in ecx
as part of the calling convention. The cost is setting ecx on all
calls and checking ecx on entry to strict mode functions.
Implicit/explicit receiver state has to be maintained by ICs. Various
stubs have to not clobber ecx or save and restore it.
CallFunction stub needs to check if the receiver is implicit when it
doesn't know from the context.

KeyedLoadStubCompiler::GenerateLoadExternalArray is tail-calling a stub, which it is not allowed to, because its major key is higher than InstanceOf. Instead of changing the major key I decided to provide an inline implementation.

When the stub return a heap number we do a state transition to
a version HEAP_NUMBER that can handle -0.
There is room for further improvement in the typefeedback for the
case of -0. This change however does not address this and only fixes
the acute issue.

Better support for 'polymorphic' JS and external arrays
Allow keyed store/load stubs to switch between external array and fast JS arrays without forcing a state transition to the generic stub.
There CL consists of two pieces of functionality. First, code stubs for fast element arrays don't immediately transition to the MEGAMORPHIC state when there's a map mismatch. Second, two ICs are cached per map for fast elements, the MONOMORPHIC version, and a new MEGAMORPHIC version that handles two or more different maps and dispatches to shared stubs to perform the array operation.

As a side note, this change has some positive impact on the performace, e.g. imaging-darkroom is 8.3% faster and ws-ieee754conv is even 19.9% faster. No idea why the speedup is so big in some cases, but never look a gift horse in the mouth... ;-)

The profiler did not correctly identify when there was a JS frame
on the stack after an exception was thrown.
I also refactored the code to use PopTryHandler macro-instructions on all platforms

This allows us to get rid of totally fake LAST_STRING_TYPE and makes
it possible to test for symbols.
I considered splitting HCheckInstanceType into two instructions, but
it seems nice to be able to hide the instance type implementation
details from the hydrogen level.

If the result of an fast elements load is converted to an untagged
representation we can omit the hole check if the value is not used
anywhere else except for HChange instructions converting it to
an untagged representation since those will deoptimize for the hole
value anyway.
