Original Commit Message:
Large character classes may easily be created when unicode
properties (e.g.: /\p{L}/u and /\P{L}/u) are used - these are
expanded internally into character classes that consist of hundreds
of character ranges. Previously to this CL, we'd emit branching code
for each of these ranges, leading to very large regexp code objects.
This CL adds a new codegen mode for large character classes (where
'large' currently means > 16 ranges). Instead of emitting branching
code inline, the ranges are written into a ByteArray and we call into
the C function IsCharacterInRangeArray for the actual branching logic.
The ByteArray is smaller than emitted code and is deduplicated if the
same character class is matched repeatedly in the same pattern.
Note this mode is *not* implemented for the interpreter, since we
currently don't have a constant pool for irregexp bytecode, and thus
cannot reference ByteArrays.
