1e9a7267ab Introduce extended mode.
This CL introduces a third mode next to the non-strict
(henceforth called 'classic mode') and 'strict mode'
which is called 'extended mode' as in the current
ES.next specification drafts. The extended mode is based on
the 'strict mode' and adds new functionality to it. This
means that most of the semantics of these two modes
coincide.

The 'extended mode' is entered instead of the 'strict mode'
during parsing when using the 'strict mode' directive
"use strict" and when the the harmony-scoping flag is
active. This should be changed once it is fully specified how the 'extended mode' is entered.

This change introduces a new 3 valued enum LanguageMode
(see globals.h) corresponding to the modes which is mostly
used by the frontend code. This includes the following
components:
* (Pre)Parser
* Compiler
* SharedFunctionInfo, Scope and ScopeInfo
* runtime functions: StoreContextSlot,
  ResolvePossiblyDirectEval, InitializeVarGlobal,
  DeclareGlobals

The old enum StrictModeFlag is still used in the backend
when the distinction between the 'strict mode' and the 'extended mode' does not matter. This includes:
* SetProperty runtime function, Delete builtin
* StoreIC and KeyedStoreIC
* StubCache

d7e099889e Implement code stub for object literal creation.
This generates code stubs for cloning of shallow object literal
boilerplates that have no elements and only fast properties. Improves
splay performance because object literals are created frequently.

8480569467 Fix lazy deoptimization at HInvokeFunction and enable target-recording call-function stub.
Changes the way we do lazy deoptimization:

1. For side-effect instructions, we insert the lazy-deopt call at
the following LLazyBailout instruction.

     CALL
     GAP
     LAZY-BAILOUT ==> lazy-deopt-call

2. For other instructions (StackCheck) we insert it right after the
instruction since the deopt targets an earlier deoptimization environment.

   STACK-CHECK
   GAP ==> lazy-deopt-call

The pc of the lazy-deopt call that will be patched in is recorded in the
deoptimization input data. Each Lithium instruction can have 0..n safepoints.
All safepoints get the deoptimization index of the associated LAZY-BAILOUT
instruction. On lazy deoptimization we use the return-pc to find the safepoint.
The safepoint tells us the deoptimization index, which in turn finds us the
PC where to insert the lazy-deopt-call.

Additional changes:
 * RegExpLiteral marked it as having side-effects so that it 
   gets an explicitlazy-bailout instruction (instead of
   treating it specially like stack-checks)
 * Enable target recording CallFunctionStub to achieve
   more inlining on optimized code.

e49d533b50 Reapply "Add a level of indirection to exception handler addresses."
Original commit message:

Add a level of indirection to exception handler addresses.

To support deoptimization of exception handlers, the handler address in the
stack is converted to a pair of code object and an index into a separate
table of code offsets.  The index part is invariant under deoptimization.
The index is packed into the handler state field so that handler size does
not change.

4e4a901d96 Remove the forward-bailout stack from the non-optimizing compiler.
This was pretty heavyweight.  It was kept in just for a few corner cases
that assumed it was there.  We can work around them by making sure that the
expression in a reified test context is always really the expression that
was visited in that context; and by inspecting the context manually and
consing up a pair of extra AST IDs for the unusual case of unary not in a
value AST context.

e8bccc2cb0 Block scoped const variables.
This implements block scoped 'const' declared variables in harmony mode. They
have a temporal dead zone semantics similar to 'let' bindings, i.e. accessing
uninitialized 'const' bindings in throws a ReferenceError.

As for 'let' bindings, the semantics of 'const' bindings in global scope is not
correctly implemented yet. Furthermore assignments to 'const's are silently
ignored. Another CL will introduce treatment of those assignments as early
errors.

a4e0103708 Clean up the x86 assembler API.
The API is inconsistent about when a register must be coerced to an operand
and when it can be used as a register.  Simplify usage by never requiring it
to be wrapped.

Introduce a version of the CallFunctionStub that records monomorphic
call targets in a one-element cache in the instruction stream.  Use
the cache for inlining attempts in the optimizing backend.

Currently not crankshaft support, using flag on non-ia32 platforms will lead to write barrier misses and crashes.

fdade92c20 Reorganize object type enum, such that proxies are no longer in the middle
of the range of proper JS objects.

Unfortunately, callable types no longer form a range now. However, there
are only two anyway. We put them at either end of the range of JS object
types so that certain compares can be combined.

cf63503cad Unify the handling of comparinsons against null and undefined.
Although this patch is not small, most parts of it are rather mechanical:

 * First of all, the concept of a 'nil-like' value is introduced, which can be
   null or undefined. They are treated symmetrically regarding comparisons, so
   it makes sense to handle them in a uniform manner. It is a mystery why
   JavaScript defines two of those beasts, when even *one* is a design wart...

 * Extended and renamed a few things which now handle undefined in addition to
   null.

 * Made the parts of the full code generator and the hydrogen generation which
   deal with comparisons a bit more similar regarding their handling of special
   cases.

 * Refactored the syntactical detection of special cases for comparisons,
   hopefully making them a bit more readable and less copy-n-paste-oriented.
   Things like this should really be a one-liner in any sane programming
   language... :-P

 * Cut down the length of the argument lists of a few functions to something
   less insane, making them more easily understandable locally. This involves
   minor code duplication, but this was a good tradeoff and can be remedied
   later if necessary.

 * Replaced some boolean arguments with more readable enums.

 * Fixed a TODO: Values which are definitely a Smi or unboxed can never be equal
   to null or undefined.

44d931c9d5 Add asserts to ensure that we:
1) Don't make a call to C without having a valid frame on the stack.
2) Don't generate a call to a stub while generating a stub, unless we can be
sure that the stub we are calling has already been generated (the stub
generation code is not reentrant wrt. GC).

8c744768e2 Nuke CompareToNull AST node.
The Great Master Plan is to move the recognition of special cases for
comparisons further down the compilation pipeline where more information is
available. This is a first step into this direction: The special handling of
equality comparisons involving null is pushed from the parser to the code
generators, removing the need for a special AST node. (There are rumors from
usually well-informed sources that this node type is actually a relic of ancient
crankshaft days...)

The next steps will be the unification of null/undefined handling and pushing
the special case handling in crankshaft even further down the pipeline, enabling
the recognition of cases like "var foo=null; if (foo === bar) ...", but these
will be in separate CLs.
