The collector class automatically expands to hold the values added to it,
like a List, but doesn't ensure that the backing store is contiguous, which
allows it to avoid copying back and forth as the buffer grows.
This is in preparation for identifyng identical symbols during preparsing.

Object model changes
----------------------------------------
New fixed_cow_array_map is used for the elements array of a JSObject
to mark it as COW. The JSObject's map and other fields are not
affected. The JSObject's map still has the "fast elements" bit set. It
means we can do only the receiver map check in keyed loads and the
receiver and the elements map checks in keyed stores. So introducing
COW arrays doesn't hurt performance of these operations. But note that
the elements map check is necessary in all mutating operations because
the "has fast elements" bit now means "has fast elements for reading".
EnsureWritableFastElements can be used in runtime functions to perform
the necessary lazy copying.
Generated code changes
----------------------------------------
Generic keyed load is updated to only do the receiver map check (this
could have been done earlier). FastCloneShallowArrayStub now has two
modes: clone elements and use COW elements. AssertFastElements macro
is added to check the elements when necessary. The custom call IC
generators for Array.prototype.{push,pop} are updated to avoid going
to the slow case (and patching the IC) when calling the builtin should
work.
COW enablement
----------------------------------------
Currently we only put shallow and simple literal arrays in the COW
mode. This is done by the parser.

The static ScopeInfo members moved into this class.
The new class is named ScopeInfoObject which I am not proud of,
better ideas are very welcome.
Also got rid of the sentinels in the serialized scope info which saves 3 words per function
and is not slower.

Added support for more precise break points when debugging and stepping. To achieve that additional nop instructions are inserted where breaking would otherwise be impossible. The number of nop instructions inserted are sufficient to make place for patching with a call to a debug break code stub. On Intel that is 5 nop's for 32-bit and 13 for 64-bit. Om ARM 3 nop instructions (12 bytes) are required.
In order to avoid inserting nop's in to many places a simple ast checker have been added to check whether there are breakable code in a statement or expression. If it is possible to break in an expression no additional break enabeling code is inserted.
Added break locations to the true and false part of a conditional expression.
Added stepping tests to cover more constructs.
These changes are only in the full compiler.
Changed the default value for the option --debugger in teh d8 shell from true to false. The reason for this is that with --debugger turned on the full compiler will be used for all code in when running d8, which can be unexpeceted.

Changing ScriptData API to serialize its internal representation to a
const char* array.
This decouples the API from the internal representation and avoids the need for
callers to serialize themselves.
As a side-effect, ScriptData::New() no longer assumes ownership of its input.
This shouldn't matter as typical usage patterns for the old API would have
required a copy prior to calling ScriptData::New().

of having a list of virtual frame pointers in the jump
target we have one virtual frame, which is the frame that
all have to merge to to branch to that frame. The virtual
frame in the JumpTarget is inside the JumpTarget, rather than
being an allocated object that is pointed to. Unfortunately
this means that the JumpTarget class has to be able to see
the size of a VirtualFrame object to compile, which in turn
lead to a major reorganization of related .h files. The
actual change of functionality in this change is intended
to be minimal (we now assert that the virtual frames match
when using JumpTarget instead of just assuming that they do).

Previously we marked compare operations that occurred as for loop
conditions so as to avoid inlining the floating-point code for them.
Begin marking all expressions that occur as any loop condition
(because they are never dead code).

This change adds the option to peel off the first iteration of inner loops.
Loop peeling is off by default and can enabled by a flag. It also requires building a flow graph.
As part of this I added the possibility to clone AST nodes.

The inline runtime functions are now included in the fuzzing of the natives. The chack for the expected number of arguments passed have been moved to the parser which will generate a syntax error if a runtime function (either C++ or inline) is called with a different number of arguments than expected.

Remove messages.h from v8.h and include it explicitly in only the few places
it is needed. Many files relied on getting handles-inl.h implicitly from
messages.h through v8.h, so include handles-inl.h explicitly in v8.h
instead.
Remove zone-inl.h from header files where it is not needed, can be replaced
by a forward declaration, or can be replaced by zone.h (specifically,
factory.h and heap.h). Include zone.h or zone-inl.h in header files where
it was implicitly included via heap.h or factory.h. Prefer zone.h over
zone-inl.h in header files where possible by including zone-inl.h in .cc
files.

A variable usage analysis pass was run on toplevel and lazily-compiled
code but never used. Remove this pass and the data structures it
builds.
The representation of variable usage for Variables has been changed
from a struct containing a (weighted) count of reads and writes to a
simple flag. VariableProxies are always used, as before. The unused
"object uses" is removed.

No need to create sub strings for lazy compiles. The scanner will start from the start position provided.
Moved the creating of character streams into the scanner where possible. This uses a input buffer in the scanner class instead of a stack allocated one.
Added a UTF16 buffer for reading external ascii strings (by templating the external two byte string one) as all the source for the builtins are exposed as external ascii strings.

When initializing the special local variable containing the reference to the enclosing
function in named functions we now (correctly) emit an INIT_CONST instead of INIT_VAR,
and we correctly bail out in the top-level code generator.
Also part of this change is adding missing statement position information
for some statements in the top-level code generator.

Condition block of do/while statements is a valid break location so it should have its own position. The block is represented by a regular Expression node so we cannot store the position in it, instead the position is stored in a separate field in DoWhileStatement AST node.

while, and for loops.
Previously they were distinguished by a type field, which required
runtime asserts to avoid invalid nodes (since not all loop types have
the same internal structure). Now they C++ type system is used to
require well-formed loop ASTs.
Because they do not share compilation code, we had very large
functions in the code generators that merely did a runtime dispatch to
a specific implementation based on the type.

1. Change the AST node type CallNew to be a subclass of Expression
rather than Call. It's not really a call but it just happens to
have the same fields.
2. Change our error reporting for invalid left-hand sides in for-in
statements, pre- and postfix count expressions, and assignments.
Before we signaled a syntax error at compile time *unless* the LHS
was a function call or 'new' expression, in which case we signaled
a reference error at runtime. Now we signal a reference error at
runtime in all cases. This matches the JSC behavior in Safari 4.
