The main issue was due to multiple recompilations of functions. Now
code objects are grouped by function using SFI object address.
JSFunction objects are no longer tracked, instead we track SFI object
moves. To pick a correct code version, we now sample return addresses
instead of JSFunction addresses.
tools/{linux|mac|windows}-tickprocessor scripts differentiate
between code optimization states for the same function
(using * and ~ prefixes introduced earlier).
DevTools CPU profiler treats all variants of function code as
a single function.
ll_prof treats each optimized variant as a separate entry, because
it can disassemble each one of them.
tickprocessor.py not updated -- it is deprecated and will be removed.

An attempt to retrieve security context for a function may fail if the
destination heap space is in an incomplete state. To fix this, we only
record unknown functions discovered at GC object moves, and then
register them after GC completes.

The cause for missing functions is that some of them are created
from compiled code (see FastNewClosureStub), and thus not get
registered in profiler's code map.
My solution is to hook on GC visitor to provide JS functions
addresses to profiler, only if it is enabled.

The number of inobject properties used to be derived from the number
of this property assignments in the constructor (and increased by 2 to
allow for properties added later). This very often leads to wasted inobject
slots.
This patch reclaims some of the unused inobject space by the following method:
- for each constructor function the first several objects are allocated using the initial
("generous) instance size estimation (this is called 'tracking phase').
- during the tracking phase map transitions are tracked and actual property counts are collected.
- at the end of the tracking phase instance sizes in the maps are decreased if necessary
(starting with the function's initial map and traversing the transition tree).
- all further allocation use more realistic instance size estimation.
Shrinking generously allocated objects without costly heap traversal is made possible
by initializing their inobject properties with one_pointer_filler_map (instead of undefined).
The initial slack for the generous allocation is increased from 2 to 6 which really helps some tests.

That could improve chances for commit success as currently,
if we moved free pages out of order, we cannot shrink spaces.
However, when we experience problems commiting from space back, we should
use most of resources at our disposal.
Also get rid of currently unused parameter to DeallocateFunction.

the code object's instructions.
This allows us to find a code object using just the pc. This approach
uses a cache (PcToCodeCache) to make sure we don't continuously have
to iterate heap pages.
This change eliminates the need for cooking and uncooking of stack frames.

This should help in cases like:
function Constructor() {
this.foo = constFunction;
this.bar = "baz";
}
for (...) {
o = new Constructor();
// Constant call IC will work.
o.foo();
// Inlined property load will see the same map.
use(o.bar);
}
This change also fixes a latent bug in custom call IC-s for strings
exposed by string-charcodeat.js.

To trace objects between snapshots, an external map of object tags is
maintained. After the first heap snapshot has been taken, the map is
updated by reporting object moves from the GC. If no snapshots were
taken, there is no overhead (except for flag checking).
I considered graph comparison algorithms that doesn't require using
object tags, but they are all of a high computational complexity, and
will still fail to detect object moves properly, even for trivial
cases, so using tags looks like unavoidable.

Use virtually dispatched specialized scavengers instead of single generic ScavengeObjectSlow implementation.
Rollback of r5041 with assertion checking callback alignment removed. Map space is iterated in a special fashion during scavenges so special callback alignment is not required.

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.

- New сardmarking write barrier handles large objects and normal objects in a similar fashion (no more additional space for pointer tracking is required, no conditional branches in WB code).
- Changes to enable oldspaces iteration without maps decoding:
-- layout change for FixedArrays: length is stored as a smis (initial patch by
Kevin Millikin)
-- layout change for SharedFunctionInfo: integer fields are stored as smi on
arm, ia32 and rearranged on x64.
-- layout change for String: meaning of LSB bit is fliped (1 now means hash not
computed); on x64 padding is added.
-- layout of maps is _not_ changed. Map space is currently iterated in a special
way.

- RelinkPageListInChunkOrder might relink unused pages into the middle of a sequence of used pages. Filler objects should be placed at the beginning of such unused pages otherwise generic iterators (e.g. HeapObjectIterator) would not handle them correctly.
- ObjectAreaEnd() should not be used as an allocation limit for pages from FixedSpace. Pages in such spaces do not use top page_extra_ bytes of object area.
