This adds a new InstanceOfIC where the TestInstanceOf bytecode collects constant feedback about the right-hand side of instanceof operators, including both JSFunction and JSBoundFunction instances. TurboFan then uses the feedback to optimize instanceof in places where the right-hand side is not a known constant (known to TurboFan). This addresses the odd performance cliff that we see with instanceof in functions with multiple closures. It was discovered as one of the main bottlenecks on the uglify-es test in the web-tooling-benchmark. The uglify-es test (run in separation) is ~18% faster with this change. On the micro-benchmark in the tracking bug we go from instanceofSingleClosure_Const: 69 ms. instanceofSingleClosure_Class: 246 ms. instanceofMultiClosure: 246 ms. instanceofParameter: 246 ms. to instanceofSingleClosure_Const: 70 ms. instanceofSingleClosure_Class: 75 ms. instanceofMultiClosure: 76 ms. instanceofParameter: 73 ms. boosting performance by roughly 3.6x and thus effectively removing the performance cliff around instanceof.
