Jakob Gruber 76a2ab06a1 [compiler] Direct heap reads for JSArrayRef
There are two aspects to the non-JSObject parts of JSArrayRef:

- JSArrayRef::length. Relevant only in two spots, 1. when reading
(immutable) array boilerplates and 2. for GetOwnCowElement.

- JSArrayRef::GetOwnCowElement. May read into a copy-on-write backing
store. Relies on the invariant that cow backing stores are immutable.

This CL renames the length accessor to length_unsafe to make the
danger explicit at callsites.

For GetOwnCowElement the refactor is slightly larger, since we now
need to read into the backing store while keeping full control of
object reads (e.g. JSArray::length and JSArray::elements_kind). We
make all reads explicit at the call site by requiring that elements,
elements kind, and length are passed in as arguments to
GetOwnCowElement. Inside GetOwnCowElement, consistency between these
is *not* guaranteed due to concurrency. At runtime, consistency *is*
guaranteed through the reference-equality check on the elements seen
during compilation. The actual elements read is implemented in
ConcurrentLookupIterator::GetOwnCowElement.
