Benedikt Meurer 0875778fd8 [turbofan] Teach TurboFan about the TypedArray constructor.
This introduces a new JSCreateTypedArray operator, backed by a dedicated
CreateTypedArray builtin, and adds support to lowering new TypedArray
calls to this operator. This way we avoid the overhead of going through
the generic construct stub machinery for hot code. This not only
recovers the performance regression on the typed array constructor
benchmarks, but even improves slightly beyond what we had in 6.6.

We might in the future try to fully inline the TypedArray constructor
into optimized code for certain cases.
