This is a first step towards moving Turbofan code generation off the main thread. Summary of the changes: - AssemblerBase no longer has a pointer to the isolate. Instead, its constructor receives the few things that it needs from the isolate (on most architectures this is just the serializer_enabled flag). - RelocInfo no longer has a pointer to the isolate. Instead, the functions that need it take it as an argument. (There are currently still a few that implicitly access the isolate through a HeapObject.) - The MacroAssembler now explicitly holds a pointer to the isolate (before, it used to get it from the Assembler). - The jit_cookie also moved from AssemblerBase to the MacroAssemblers, since it's not used at all in the Assemblers. - A few architectures implemented parts of the Assembler with the help of a Codepatcher that is based on MacroAssembler. Since the Assembler no longer has the isolate, but the MacroAssembler still needs it, this doesn't work anymore. Instead, these Assemblers now use a new PatchingAssembler.
