Before computing reaching definitions, the set of all definitions in a
function must be collected and they must be numbered. Have the flow
graph builder collect definitions for stack-allocated variables into a
list, and implicitly number them with their list index.

The flow graph is built by walking the AST. Edges are labeled with
instructions (AST nodes). Normal nodes have a single predecessor edge and a
single (labeled) successor edge. Branch nodes are explicit, they have a
single predecessor edge and a pair of (unlabeled) successor edges. Merge
nodes are explicit, they have a pair of predecessor edges and a single
(unlabeled) successor edge.
There is a distinguished (normal) entry node and a distinguished (special)
exit node with arbitrarily many predecessor edges and no successor edges.
The graph is intended to support graph-based analysis and transformation.

This change add simple local live variable information to
the fast code generator. It supports only AST nodes that
are accepted by the syntax checker.
Each variable use points to a variable definition structure
which contains the last use of the definition.
To determine whether a variable is live after a certain point
we can check whether its last use occurs later in the evaluation
order defined by the AST labeling number.
The new information is currently only printed out together with
the IR and not yet used for code generation.

Support a binary operation (bitwise OR) so long as it's not nested in
the left subexpression. This ensures that the expression stack never
has height greater than two and so can be kept fully in registers.
The bounded expression stack height and the absence of any side
effects on the fast path allows us to still bailout out to the very
beginning of the function if any of our fast-path checks fail.

This is a first step towards loading globals directly from property cells instead
of going through a load IC.
This change supports only properties with the DontDelete attribute since
we are only able to bailout into the generic code generated by the secondary
code generator the beginning of a function. The resulting fast-case code is
specialized for a specific context. When invoked with a different global object,
it will always bailout to the secondary code.
When loading a property that does not exist at compile-time or a property
that is deleteable we still generate the generic load IC.

This change adds a post-order numbering to AST nodes that
are relevant for the fast code generator. It is only invoked
together with the fast compiler.
Also changed the ast printer to print the numbering for
testing purposes if it is present.
