bmeurer 1e2770123b [turbofan] Avoid unnecessary write barriers and improve code generation.
Avoid write barriers when storing values in the root set, and use
cheaper write barriers for storing maps or tagged pointers. Also
improve the generated code for write barriers, utilizing the out
of line code mechanism that is available to TurboFan backends,
which moves the unlikely case out of the hot path.
