This patchset begins by adding support for "yield", which is unlike other tokens
in JS. In a generator, whether strict or classic, it is a syntactic keyword.
In classic mode it is an identifier. In strict mode it is reserved.
This patch adds YIELD as a token to the scanner, and adapts the preparser and
parser appropriately. It also parses "function*", indicating that a function is
actually a generator, for both eagerly and lazily parsed functions.
Currently "yield" just compiles as "return".

This includes:
- actually release handles kept by compilation info when compilation completes.
- do not use parallel recompilation on single core CPUs.
- artificially delay parallel recompilation for debugging.
- fix outdated assertions wrt optimization status.
- add "parallel" option to %OptimizeFunctionOnNextCall.

Unified parameter order of CreateHandle with the rest of v8 on the way. A few
Isolate::Current()s had to be introduced, which is not nice, and not every place
will win a beauty contest, but we can clean this up later easily in smaller steps.

With parallel recompilation enabled, objects made accessible by handles may
have changed between graph construction and graph optimization. Therefore
we must not assume that information on those objects remain the same between
those two phases. To police this, we forbid handle dereferencing during
graph optimization.
Exceptions to this rule are:
- Dereferencing the handle to obtain the raw location of the object. This
is safe since parallel recompilation acquires RelocationLock
- Some places that dereference the handle for a type check. These are checked
to be safe on a case-by-case basis.

Making the code size predictable is hard, and to make things even more
complicated, the start of a function can contain various stuff like calls to a
profiling hook, receiver adjustment or dynamic frame alignment. Instead of
tackling all these problems separately, we now simply record the offset where
patching should happen later in the Code object itself.

When code objects in the heap for FUNCTIONs and OPTIMIZED_FUNCTIONs are marked by the GC, their prologue is patched with a call to a stub that removes the patch. This allows the collector to quickly identify code objects that haven't been executed since the last full collection (they are the ones that sill contain the patch). The functionality is currently disabled, but can be activated by specifying the "--age-code".

Added highly efficient Object::SetAlignedPointerInInternalField and
Object::GetAlignedPointerFromInternalField functions for 2-byte-aligned
pointers. Their non-aligned counterparts Object::GetPointerFromInternalField and
Object::SetPointerInInternalField are now deprecated utility functions.
External is now a true Value again, with New/Value/Cast using a JSObject with an
internal field containing a Foreign. External::Wrap, and External::Unwrap are now
deprecated utility functions.
Added Context::GetEmbedderData and Context::SetEmbedderData. Deprecated
Context::GetData and Context::SetData, these are now only wrappers to access
internal field 0.
Added highly efficient Context::SetAlignedPointerInEmbedderData and
Context::GetAlignedPointerFromEmbedderData functions for 2-byte-aligned
pointers.

- The global object has a reference to the current global scope chain.
Running a script adds to the chain if it contains global lexical declarations.
- Scripts are executed relative to a global, not a native context.
- Harmony let and const bindings are allocated to the innermost global context;
var and function still live on the global object.
(Lexical bindings are not reflected on the global object at all,
but that will probably change later using accessors, as for modules.)
- Compilation of scripts now needs a (global) context (previously only eval did).
- The global scope chain represents one logical scope, so collision tests take
the chain into account.

mksnapshot or a VM that is booted from a snapshot. --debug-code
can still have an effect on stub and optimized code and it still
works on the full code generator when running without snapshots.
The deoptimizer generates full-code-generator code and relies on it having
the same layout as last time. This means that the code the full code
generator makes for the snapshot should be the same as the code it makes
later. This change makes the full code generator create more consistent
code between mksnapshot time and run time.
This is a bug fix and a step towards making the snapshot code more robust.
