999e3fca90 Fix issue 553: function frame is skipped in profile when compare stub is called.
The problem appeared due to a fact that stubs doesn't create a stack
frame, reusing the stack frame of the caller function. When building
stack traces, the current function is retrieved from PC, and its
callees are retrieved by traversing the stack backwards. Thus, for
stubs, the stub itself was discovered via PC, and then stub's caller's
caller was retrieved from stack.

To fix this problem, a pointer to JSFunction object is now captured
from the topmost stack frame, and is saved into stack trace log
record. Then a simple heuristics is applied whether a referred
function should be added to decoded stack, or not, to avoid reporting
the same function twice (from PC and from the pointer.)

BUG=553
TEST=added to mjsunit/tools/tickprocessor

37d3972429 Fix issue 571: display descriptive names for code objects from snapshot.
As this is only needed for internal profiling (not for DevTools),
the following approach had been chosen:

 - during snapshot creation, positions of serialized objects inside
   a snapshot are logged;

 - then during V8 initialization, positions of deserealized objects
   are logged;

 - those positions are used for retrieving code objects names from
   snapshot creation log, which needs to be supplied to tick processor
   script.

Positions logging is controlled with the new flag: --log_snapshot_positions.
This flag is turned off by default, and this adds no startup penalty.

To plug this fix to Golem, the following actions are needed:

 - logs created using 'mksnapshot' need to be stored along with VM images;

 - tick processor script needs to be run with '--snapshot-log=...' cmdline
   argument.

BUG=571

e0b829b1a5 TickProcessor: more accurate mapping of statically compiled code on Linux.
'nm' is now called with an option to report function code sizes. Static code entries are restricted to the sizes reported, and the remaining unnamed code is attributed to a library as a whole. This makes reports more accurate, as some functions are tiny, but has chunks of unnamed code behind them.

This change doesn't affect reporting on Windows, as in .map files function code sizes aren't specified.

178a656429 Enhancing profiling data processing code with functionality needed for the Dev Tools Profiler.
Details:

 - added properties / functions in view objects needed for WebKit's ProfileView;

 - added ability to count profiles for specific functions.

The tickprocessor functionality does not affected.

aa2c33126c TickProcessor script reimplemented in JavaScript.
This is an effort to reuse profiler data processing code both in
TickProcessor and Dev Tools Profiler. The old Python implementation
will be removed.

The new TickProcessor works almost identical to the previous one.
However, it has some differences:

1. Not very useful "Call profile" section is replaced with a new
   WebKit-like "Bottom up (heavy) profile" which shows the most
   expensive functions together with their callers. I used it
   personally in order to find and remove bottlenecks in the
   tickprocessor script itself, and found it quite helpful.

2. Code entries with duplicate names (they occur for RegExes, stubs
   and sometimes for anonymous Function objects) are now distinguished
   by adding an occurence number inside curly brackets.

3. (Address -> code entry) mapping is more precise in boundary cases.

4. Windows version no more requires specifying .map file location.

5. Works faster.

2060dc1512 Added ProfileView object for performing sorting, searching and filtering operations on a profile.
It will be used both in the new tickprocessor and Dev Tools profiler.
