This patch refactors the parser and preparser interface to be more
readable and type-safe. It has no behavior changes.
Previously, parsers and preparsers were configured via bitfield called
parser_flags in the Parser constructor, and flags in
PreParser::PreParseProgram, ParserApi::Parse, and ParserApi::PreParse.
This was error-prone in practice: six call sites passed incorrectly
typed values to this interface (a boolean FLAG value, a boolean false
and a boolean true value). None of these errors were caught by the
compiler because it's just an "int".
The parser flags interface was also awkward because it encoded a
language mode, but the language mode was only used to turn on harmony
scoping or not -- it wasn't used to actually set the parser's language
mode.
Fundamentally these errors came in because of the desire for a
procedural parser interface, in ParserApi. Because we need to be able
to configure the parser in various ways, the flags argument got added;
but no one understood how to use the flags properly. Also they were
only used by constructors: callers packed bits, and the constructors
unpacked them into booleans on the parser or preparser.
The solution is to allow parser construction, configuration, and
invocation to be separated. This patch does that.
It passes the existing tests.

in preparation of the introduction of ES6 'symbols' (aka private/unique names).
The SymbolTable became the StringTable. I also made sure to adapt all comments. The only remaining use of the term "symbol" (other than unrelated uses in the parser and such) is now 'NewSymbol' in the API and the 'V8.KeyedLoadGenericSymbol' counter, changing which might break embedders.
The one functional change in this CL is that I removed the former 'empty_string' constant, since it is redundant given the 'empty_symbol' constant that we also had (and both were used inconsistently).

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.

This makes the DeoptimizeAll function O(n) instead of O(n^2) where n in the number of optimized functions.
Before this change, DeoptimizeAll iterated over the optimized function list and called DeoptimizingVisitor for each function. The visitor iterated over the optimized function list again to remove the functions that share the same optimized code.
This change partitions the optimized function list into one or more lists of related functions in one pass over the optimized function list.

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".

The CompilationInfo record now saves a Zone, and the compiler pipeline
allocates memory from the Zone in the CompilationInfo. Before
compiling a function, we create a Zone on the stack and save a pointer
to that Zone to the CompilationInfo; which then gets picked up and
allocated from.

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.

* Remove a couple of unused fields from the FunctionLiteral, ensure that all
the bools are packed.
* Rename SaveScope and LexicalScope in the parser.
* Use an enum to generate the numbers 0..N and the dependent count, rather
than static const ints. This is simpler to extend (coming in a future
change).
