This is a reland of commit 07e11a64e4.
The original change removed the fill_thehole_and_call_runtime bailout
in StringBuiltinsAssembler::StringToArray() so when the string
is external and cannot be unpacked, the FixedArray won't be filled
with holes before we call into the runtime, thus failing a
heap verification if a GC happens before the array is filled. This
reland adds back the bailout for this case.
Bug: v8:12718, chromium:1330410
Original change's description:
> [heap] pre-populate the single_character_string_cache
>
> This simplifies the code and removes the runtime overhead of
> spontaneously adding strings to the cache.
