Caitlin Potter ac3f98d58e [builtins] put SetPropertyInLiteral in a code-stub
There are several core changes in this stub:

1) add a version of KeyedStoreGenericGenerator::SetPropertyInLiteral()
which supports indexed properties directly, witthout KeyedStore

2) add a code stub for SetPropertyInLiteral which uses the version
supporting indexed properties

3) Use the code stub in CloneObjectIC, rather than using the smaller
special-cased version which does not handle Names.

Item 1) involves a refactoring which adds a nice way to reuse code in
KeyedStoreGenericAssembler, which allows deleting a bunch of copy/pasted
code. This makes it easy to reuse the index handling in
KeyedStoreGeneric() without adding adding a bunch more duplicated
handling. Because of this, I consider this to be somewhat of a cleanup,
though if the copied code is preferred, I'm happy to revert to that.

Item 2) is needed for Object.fromEntries(), as it's better to not
require falling back to the slow path if a key happens to be an Smi ---
but this is also optional.

Item 3) benefits the codebase by allowing Object.fromEntries() to use
this fast path without calling into the runtime, and without duplicating
code which is also used by CloneObjectIC.

I am skeptical that this should affect performance significantly. I've
run ObjectLiteralSpread tests, and the mean of scores over 100 runs is
somewhat surprising: CloneObjectIC --- the only user of this code,
has an increased average score, while the polyfill cases score slightly
worse --- However, the overall changes are small and likely flukes.
The complete processed test output is below:
