Original descriptions were:
- "Refactor and cleanup VirtualMemory."
- "Fix typo."
- "Deuglify V8_INLINE and V8_NOINLINE."
- "Don't align size on allocation granularity for unaligned ReserveRegion calls."
Reasons for the revert are:
- Our mjsunit test suite slower by a factor of 5(!) in release mode.
- Flaky cctest/test-alloc/CodeRange on all architectures and platforms.
- Tankage of Sunspider by about 6% overall (unverified).

Remove a lot of platform duplication, and simplify the virtual
memory implementation. Also improve readability by avoiding bool
parameters for executability (use a dedicated Executability type
instead).
Get rid of the Isolate::UncheckedCurrent() call in the platform
code, as part of the Isolate TLS cleanup.
Use a dedicated random number generator for the address
randomization, instead of messing with the per-isolate random
number generators.

The RandomNumberGenerator is a pseudorandom number generator
with 48-bit state. It is properly seeded using either
(1) the --random-seed if specified, or
(2) the entropy_source function if configured, or
(3) /dev/urandom if available, or
(4) falls back to Time and TimeTicks based seeding.
Each Isolate now contains a RandomNumberGenerator, which replaces
the previous private_random_seed.
Every native context still has its own random_seed. But this random
seed is now properly initialized during bootstrapping,
instead of on-demand initialization. This will allow us to cleanup
and speedup the HRandom implementation quite a lot (this is delayed
for a followup CL)!
Also stop messing with the system rand()/random(), which should
not be done from a library anyway! We probably re-seeded the
libc rand()/random() after the application (i.e. Chrome) already
seeded it (with better entropy than what we used).
Another followup CL will replace the use of the per-isolate
random number generator for the address randomization and
thereby get rid of the Isolate::UncheckedCurrent() usage in
the platform code.

Instead of globally tracking allocated space limits, which was
not implemented properly anyway (i.e. lack of synchronization
on the reading side), track it per MemoryAllocator (that is
per heap/isolate).
In particular, avoid to call IsBadWritePtr() on Windows, it is
obsolete and Microsoft strongly discourages its usage.

Drop the previous Mutex and ScopedLock classes from platform files.
Add new Mutex, RecursiveMutex and LockGuard classes, which are
designed after their C++11 counterparts, so that at some point
we can simply drop our custom code and switch to the C++11
classes. We distinguish regular and recursive mutexes, as the
latter don't work well with condition variables, which will be
introduced by a followup CL.

These classes are meant to replace OS::Ticks() and OS::TimeCurrentMillis(),
which are broken in several ways. The ElapsedTimer class implements a
stopwatch using TimeTicks::HighResNow() for high resolution, monotonic
timing.
Also fix the CpuProfile::GetStartTime() and CpuProfile::GetEndTime()
methods to actually return the time relative to the unix epoch as stated
in the documentation (previously that was relative to some arbitrary
point in time, i.e. boot time).
The previous Windows issues have been resolved, and we now use GetTickCount64()
on Windows Vista and later, falling back to timeGetTime() with rollover
protection for earlier Windows versions.

Move all of the CPU detection logic to the CPU class, and make
all other code use the CPU class for feature detection.
This also fixes the ARM CPU feature detection logic, which was
based on fragile string search in /proc/cpuinfo. Now we use
ELF hwcaps if available, falling back to sane(!!) parsing of
/proc/cpuinfo for CPU features.
The ia32 and x64 code was also cleaned up to make it usable
outside the assembler.

This patch defines new makefile command line paramaters to better control the
ARM specific options. The new paramters are
* armfpu = vfp, vfpv3-d16, vfpv3, neon.
* armfloatabi = softfp, hard
* armneon = on
* armthumb = on, off
* armtest = on
One existing paratemer has been modified:
* armv7 = true, false
A number of parameters have been deprecated (but are still working):
* hardfp = on, off
* vfp2 = off
* vfp3 = off
the armtest paratmer when set to "on" will lock the options used during compile
time at runtime. This allows for example to easily test the ARMv6 build on an
ARMv7 platform without having to worry about features detected at runtime. When
not specified the compiler default will be used meaning it is not necessary
anymore to specify hardfp=on when natively building on an hardfp platform.
The shell help now prints the target options and features detected.

This is a first step to having profiler sampler implementation in one file with platform capabilities guarded with #ifdef. Otherwise we have very similar implementations scattered over platform-*.cc files which makes it hard to see differences and make changes.
The next steps will be to merge win32, Mac OS X and Cygwin implementations into sampler.cc They suspend profiled thread instead of sending a signal but apart from that the logic is pretty much the same. Then I'm going to move sampler-related code from log.* into sampler.*

The new test checks full CPU profiling cycle: using public
V8 API it starts profiling, executes a script, stops profiling
and analyzes collected profile to check that its top-down
tree has expected strutcture. The script that is being profiled
is guaranteed to run > 200ms to make sure enough samples
are collected.
To avoid possible flakiness due to non-deterministic time required
to start new thread on varios OSs when Sampler and ProfilerEventsProcessor
threads are being started the main thread is blocked until the threads
are running.
Also I removed the heuristic in profile-generator.cc where we try
to figure out if the value on top of the sampled stack is return address
of some frameless stub invocation. The code periodically gives false positive
with the new test ending up in an extra node in the collected cpu profile.
After discussion with jkummerow@ we concluded that the logic is too fragile
and that we can address frameless stub invocations in a more reliable way
later should they have a noticeable effect on cpu profiling.
