When a function is called with a value type as the receiver this is now boxed as an object.
This is a low-impact solution where the receiver is only boxed when required. For IC calls to the V8 builtins values are not boxed and as most of the functions on String.prototype, Number.prototype and Boolean.prototype are sitting there most IC calls on values will not need any boxing of the receiver.
For calls which are not IC calls but calls through the CallFunctionStub a flag is used to determine whether the receiver might be a value and only when that is the case will the receiver be boxed.
No changtes to Function.call and Function.apply - they already boxed values. According to the ES5 spec the receiver should not be boxed for these functions, but current browsers have not adopted that change yet.

When initializing the special local variable containing the reference to the enclosing
function in named functions we now (correctly) emit an INIT_CONST instead of INIT_VAR,
and we correctly bail out in the top-level code generator.
Also part of this change is adding missing statement position information
for some statements in the top-level code generator.

* Rename the operation of filling a context with a value. Formerly it
was 'Move', now it's 'Apply' so as to avoid confusion with various
other Moves (eg, in the toplevel codegen, in the macro assemblers).
* Use the abstraction Drop rather than math on the stack pointer.
* Add a predicate on AST expression nodes to abstract a repeated test
whether we should us a regular (named) IC or a keyed IC.

Added a stub to allocate and fill a string object with a substring from another string.
Use the rep movs instruction to copy the string data as it turned out to be the fastest way.
While preparing this I experimented with some SSE2 instructions, so the instructions movdqa and movdqu are still in the IA-32 assembler even though they are not used.

Calls to RegExp no longer have to be via a call to the runtime system. A new stub have been added which can handle this call in generated code. The stub checks all the parameters and creates RegExp entry frame in the same way as it is created by the runtime system. Bailout to the runtime system is done whenever an uncommon situation is encountered or when the static data used is not initialized. After running the native RegExp code the last match info is updated like in the runtime system.
Currently only ASCII strings are handled.
Added another argument to the RegExp entry frame. It indicated whether the call is direct from JavaScript code or through the runtime system. This information is used when RegExp execution is interrupted. If an interruption happens when RegExp code is called directly a retry is issued causing the interruption to be handled via the runtime system. The reason for this is that the direct call to RegExp code does not support garbage collection.

This adds a code stub which can do most of what Heap::AllocateConsString can do. It bails out if the result cannot fit in new space or if the result is a short (flat) string and one argument is an ascii string and the other a two byte string. It also bails out if adding two one character strings as Heap::AllocateConsString has special handling of this utilizing the symbol table. The stub is used both for the binary add operation and for StringAdd calls from runtime JavaScript files. Extended the string add test to cover all sizes of flat result stings.

The different length string types was used to encode the string length and the hash in one field. This is now split into two fields one for length and one for hash. The hash field still encodes the array index of the string if it has one. If an array index is encoded in the hash field the string length is added to the top bits of the hash field to avoid a hash value of zero.
On 32-bit this causes an additional 4 bytes to be used for all string objects. On 64-bit this will be half on average dur to pointer alignment.

Summary:
This change fixes a performance regression introduced by the special
handling of regular expressions in typeof expressions.
As a result we regain ~8% speedup on 3d-raytrace and ~13% on boyer
(vs bleeding edge)
Description:
The macros IS_OBJECT and IS_FUNCTION are frequently used in the
JS runtime functions.
By introducing new inlined runtime functions %_IsFunction and %_IsObject
we avoid invoking the more expensive %_ClassOf function plus comparing
its result to a string.

This change fixes the problem with the original version of this approach
(r3032) that may lead to a corrupted stack if we would invoke spilling during
syncing a large SMI constant (unsafe SMIs) in the virtual frame.
The new code for storing unsafe SMI constants does not use an extra temporary
register. This prevents the compiler from ever having to spill during a
virutal frame sync operation.
For storing a large SMI constant we previously generated:
mov ecx, (large_smi & 0x0000ffff)
xor ecx, (large_smi & 0xffff0000)
push ecx
we now generate:
push (large_smi & 0x0000ffff)
or [esp], (large_smi & 0xffff0000)
Not using a temporary register avoids spilling within an nvocation
of VirtualFrame::SyncRange.

In the generated code for function.apply there was a loop checking the stack limit for interruption. This loop would call into the runtime system to handle interuption and keep running until there was no interruption. However if the interuption was debug break the runtime system would never clear the interruption as debug break is prevented in builtins are prevented and the assumption here was that returning with the debug break flag set would move execution forward.
Renamed initial_jslimit and initial_climit to real_jslimit and real_climit. Renamed a few external references related to the stack limit as well.
Exposed the real stack limit to generated code to make the stack check when entering function.apply use the real stack limit and not the stack limit which is changed to signal interruption.
Added the real stack limit to the roots array.

typeof, or (?) in the arm of a conditional expression itself in the
typeof state.
It was inconsistently consulted. It was not used for property loads,
but only for slot loads. This means that we matched the Webkit JSC
(not Spidermonkey) behavior for:
typeof(true ? x : y) // throws ReferenceError
and we matched the SpiderMonkey behavior (not JSC) for:
with ({}) { typeof(true ? x : y) } // ==> "undefined"

Compilation is essentially the same as in the optimized code
generator. The expression (e0 || e1) is compiled as if it were
(let (temp = e0) temp ? temp : e1).
On ia32 and x64 a single shared ToBoolean stub is used to convert a
value to a flag. The inlined checks assumed by the stub are reordered
to compare to undefined (the common case in toplevel code?) first. On
ARM a call to the runtime is used. In the interest of code size no
checks are yet inlined on ARM.

specification under development. The optimizations are patterned after
those previously done for CanvasPixelArray. This CL adds all of the
necessary framework but continues to use the generic KeyedLoadIC and
KeyedStoreIC code, to create a baseline for benchmarking purposes. The
next CL will add the optimized ICs to ic-ia32.cc and ic-x64.cc.
These new CanvasArray types have different semantics than
CanvasPixelArray; out-of-range values are clamped via C cast
semantics, which is cheaper than the clamping behavior specified by
CanvasPixelArray. Out-of-range indices raise exceptions instead of
being silently ignored.
As part of this work, pulled FloatingPointHelper::AllocateHeapNumber
up to MacroAssembler on ia32 and x64 platforms. Slightly refactored
KeyedLoadIC and KeyedStoreIC. Fixed encoding for fistp_d on x64 and
added a few more instructions that are needed for the new ICs. The
test cases in test-api.cc have been verified by hand to exercise all
of the generated code paths in the forthcoming specialized ICs.

Previously they were distinguished by a type field, which required

The calls to GenericBinaryStub can now pass the arguments in registers instead of on the stack. It is supported for ADD, SUB, MUL and DIV. The convention in GenericBinaryStub is not changed so the left operand is passed in edx and the right one in eax. When the stub contains smi code arguments are always passed on the stack as the smi code has to have left and right operands on eax and ebx, so moving from edx,eax to eax,ebx is not worth it and the smi code also trashes the registers so if arguments where passed in registers they would have to be saved on the stack anyway.
