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

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.

Previously the preparser always accepted natives syntax and let the
real parser throw the syntax error. In ES5, it should be an early error,
so the preparser must catch the error.
The perparser library does not expose parsing for natives syntax, it's
only used internally.

The preparser has been out of sync with the parser. As a reminder, we have the
following grammer for harmony mode
Block ::
{ SourceElement* }
SourceElement ::
Statement
FunctionDeclaration
LetDeclaration
instead of
Block ::
{ Statement* }
SourceElement ::
Statement
FunctionDeclaration
The extension to allow FunctionDeclarations in statement positions in
non-strict code is still active.

Duplicate identifier detection must be an early syntax error in strict code,
so errors in otherwise lazily compiled functions must be caught in the
preparser.
Originally introduced in r8541 and reverted in r8542.
Now really compiles on Windows.

This is a fix and reapply of r8516 with some comments addressed and more
tests added.
The difference from r8516 is that canonicalization of number literals is
no performed using the same methods as in v8, to avoid false positives/negatives
when detecting duplicates.

A multi-line comment containing a newline is considered a line-terminator for
other purposes, but a "-->" following such a comment is considered as being
on the same line as the text preceeding the multi-line comment.
This behavior matches JSC matching Firefox.

We now only recognize "native function" when it occurs in extension scripts
(parsing with a non-NULL extension), and only if there is no line-terminator
between "native" and "function" (so that it would otherwise be a Syntax Error).
Preparsing never recognizes native functions, which is acceptable since we
never preparse extension scripts (because we don't allow lazy functions
anyway).

It should now be possible to build the preparser using 'scons preparser' in both release and debug modes.
Remove v8.h include from scanner-base.h and other files.
Remove NativeAllocationChecker and all of its kind.
Moved Isolate::PreallocatedStorage* to isolate.cc
