Two new methods are added to allow embedders to determine that execution
should be resumed at a particular point in the stack without being forced
to unwind all JS frames.
* V8::ResumeExecution() -- When execution is terminated via a call to
V8::TerminateExecution(), this method can be called to clear the
termination exception so that the engine can continue to be used.
* TryCatch::HasTerminated() -- When a TryCatch has caught a termination
exception, HasTerminated() will return true to indicate it is valid to
call V8::ResumeExecution() if desired.
A test case is added to cctest/test-thread-termination.cc.

The approach in this change is to handle the unwrapping/wrapping of the global object transparently with respect to the JS implementation of Object.observe. An alternate approach would be to add a runtime method like %IsJSGlobalProxy and %UnwrapJSGlobalProxy, but it seems ugly to give JS (even implementation JS) access to the unwrapped global.

This changes how FunctionTemplate interprets a Signature that specifies
compatible receivers and arguments. Only the hidden prototype chain will
be considered when searching for compatible receivers. This prevents
JavaScript from modifying the inheritance relationship set up by the

Modules now have their own local scope, represented by their own context.
Module instance objects have an accessor for every export that forwards
access to the respective slot from the module's context. (Exports that are
modules themselves, however, are simple data properties.)
All modules have a _hosting_ scope/context, which (currently) is the
(innermost) enclosing global scope. To deal with recursion, nested modules
are hosted by the same scope as global ones.
For every (global or nested) module literal, the hosting context has an
internal slot that points directly to the respective module context. This
enables quick access to (statically resolved) module members by 2-dimensional
access through the hosting context. For example,
module A {
let x;
module B { let y; }
}
module C { let z; }
allocates contexts as follows:
[header| .A | .B | .C | A | C ] (global)
| | |
| | +-- [header| z ] (module)
| |
| +------- [header| y ] (module)
|
+------------ [header| x | B ] (module)
Here, .A, .B, .C are the internal slots pointing to the hosted module
contexts, whereas A, B, C hold the actual instance objects (note that every
module context also points to the respective instance object through its
extension slot in the header).
To deal with arbitrary recursion and aliases between modules,
they are created and initialized in several stages. Each stage applies to
all modules in the hosting global scope, including nested ones.
1. Allocate: for each module _literal_, allocate the module contexts and
respective instance object and wire them up. This happens in the
PushModuleContext runtime function, as generated by AllocateModules
(invoked by VisitDeclarations in the hosting scope).
2. Bind: for each module _declaration_ (i.e. literals as well as aliases),
assign the respective instance object to respective local variables. This
happens in VisitModuleDeclaration, and uses the instance objects created
in the previous stage.
For each module _literal_, this phase also constructs a module descriptor
for the next stage. This happens in VisitModuleLiteral.
3. Populate: invoke the DeclareModules runtime function to populate each
_instance_ object with accessors for it exports. This is generated by
DeclareModules (invoked by VisitDeclarations in the hosting scope again),
and uses the descriptors generated in the previous stage.
4. Initialize: execute the module bodies (and other code) in sequence. This
happens by the separate statements generated for module bodies. To reenter
the module scopes properly, the parser inserted ModuleStatements.

This CL has two parts: the first is the logic itself, whereby each observer callback is assigned
a "priority" number the first time it's passed as an observer to Object.observe(), and that
priority is used to determine the order of delivery.
The second part invokes the above logic as part of the API, when the JS stack winds down to
zero.
Added several tests via the API, as the delivery logic isn't testable from a JS test
(it runs after such a test would exit).

This requires adding a new JSObject to the strong root list and populating it from
object-observe.js. The main other change is that we now directly use ObjectHashTable
from JS rather than using WeakMap, since using the latter would end up leaking whichever
Context initialized that observation state.
Added a test via the API showing that different contexts all end up working on the same state.

This API lets the embedder enumerate handles that have class ids. WebKit will

the speed of deserializing code. The current startup
time improvement for V8 is around 6%, but code deserialization
is speeded up disproportionately, and we will soon have more
code in the snapshot.
* Removed support for deserializing into large object space.
The regular pages are 1Mbyte now and that is plenty. This
is a big simplification.
* Instead of reserving space for the snapshot we actually
allocate it now. This removes some special casing from
the memory management and simplifies deserialization since
we are just bumping a pointer rather than calling the
normal allocation routines during deserialization.
* Record in the snapshot how much we need to boot up and
allocate it instead of just assuming that allocations in
a new VM will always be linear.
* In the snapshot we always address an object as a negative
offset from the current allocation point. We used to
sometimes address from the start of the deserialized data,
but this is less useful now that we have good support for
roots and repetitions in the deserialization data.
* Code objects were previously deserialized (like other
objects) by alternating raw data (deserialized with memcpy)
and pointers (to external references, other objects, etc.).
Now we deserialize code objects with a single memcpy,
followed by a series of skips and pointers that partially
overwrite the code we memcopied out of the snapshot.
The skips are sometimes merged into the following
instruction in the deserialization data to reduce dispatch
time.
* Integers in the snapshot were stored in a variable length
format that gives a compact representation for small positive
integers. This is still the case, but the new encoding can
be decoded without branches or conditional instructions,
which is faster on a modern CPU.

This CL adds multiple things:
Transition arrays do not directly point at their descriptor array anymore, but rather do so via an indirect pointer (a JSGlobalPropertyCell).
An ownership bit is added to maps indicating whether it owns its own descriptor array or not.
Maps owning a descriptor array can pass on ownership if a transition from that map is generated; but only if the descriptor array stays exactly the same; or if a descriptor is added.
Maps that don't have ownership get ownership back if their direct child to which ownership was passed is cleared in ClearNonLiveTransitions.
To detect which descriptors in an array are valid, each map knows its own NumberOfOwnDescriptors. Since the descriptors are sorted in order of addition, if we search and find a descriptor with index bigger than this number, it is not valid for the given map.
We currently still build up an enumeration cache (although this may disappear). The enumeration cache is always built for the entire descriptor array, even if not all descriptors are owned by the map. Once a descriptor array has an enumeration cache for a given map; this invariant will always be true, even if the descriptor array was extended. The extended array will inherit the enumeration cache from the smaller descriptor array. If a map with more descriptors needs an enumeration cache, it's EnumLength will still be set to invalid, so it will have to recompute the enumeration cache. This new cache will also be valid for smaller maps since they have their own enumlength; and use this to loop over the cache. If the EnumLength is still invalid, but there is already a cache present that is big enough; we just initialize the EnumLength field for the map.
When we apply ClearNonLiveTransitions and descriptor ownership is passed back to a parent map, the descriptor array is trimmed in-place and resorted. At the same time, the enumeration cache is trimmed in-place.
Only transition arrays contain descriptor arrays. If we transition to a map and pass ownership of the descriptor array along, the child map will not store the descriptor array it owns. Rather its parent will keep the pointer. So for every leaf-map, we find the descriptor array by following the back pointer, reading out the transition array, and fetching the descriptor array from the JSGlobalPropertyCell. If a map has a transition array, we fetch it from there. If a map has undefined as its back-pointer and has no transition array; it is considered to have an empty descriptor array.
When we modify properties, we cannot share the descriptor array. To accommodate this, the child map will get its own transition array; even if there are not necessarily any transitions leaving from the child map. This is necessary since it's the only way to store its own descriptor array.

- 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.

Now a map points to a transition array which contains the descriptor array. The descriptor array is now immutable. The next step is to share the descriptor array with all back-pointed maps as long as there is a single line of extension. Maps that require a descriptor array but don't need transitions will still need a pseudo-empty transition array to contain the descriptor array.

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.
