Runtime functions

Much of the JavaScript library is implemented in JavaScript code itself, using a minimal set of C++ runtime functions callable from JavaScript. Some of these are called using names that start with %, and using the flag "--allow-natives-syntax". Others are only called by code generated by the code generators, and are not visible in JS, even using the % syntax.
