This JSAsyncFunctionObject represents the implicit generator object inside of async functions, and also holds the outer promise for the async functions. This in turn allows us to get rid of the .promise in the Parser / BytecodeGenerator completely, and will make it possible to build zero-cost async stack traces independent of the concrete synchronous part of the stack frame (which currently breaks in Node.js). In the bytecode all the async function operations now take this new JSAsyncFunctionObject instead of passing both the .generator_object and the .promise, which further simplifies and shrinks the bytecode. It also reduces the size of async function frames, potentially making the suspend/resume cheaper. This also changes `await` to use intrinsics instead of calling to special JSFunctions on the native context, and thus reduces the size of the native contexts. Drive-by-fix: Introduce a dedicated JSCreateAsyncFunctionObject operator to TurboFan.
