- Add a new bytecode for the ToString operation, replacing the old
intrinsic call (currently does not collect type feedback).
- Add a new AST node to represent TemplateLiterals, and avoid
generating unnecessary ToString operations in some simple cases.
- Use a single feedback slot for each string addition, because the
type feedback should always be the same for each addition
This seems to produce a very slight improvement on JSTests benchmarks
and bench-ruben.js from v8:7415, and it's possible that type feedback
for the ToString bytecode could provide more opportunities to eliminate
the runtime call in TurboFan.
Doesn't touch tagged templates
[esnext] fix OOB read in ASTPrinter::VisistTemplateLiteral
Fixes an error where TemplateLiteral printing in --print-ast
would try to read an element beyond the length of a vector.
