Benoit Lize da1a2d127d [builtins] Remap embedded builtins into the heap on ARM64 macOS
For short builtin calls, the builtins are copied on the heap when they
cannot be put close enough to be in range of relative calls. This costs
memory, as the embedded builtins are part of the binary, and mapped from
the binary, and as a consequence shared with all running processes.

Rather than copying the memory, we can remap it at a different address,
avoiding the memory cost. This CL does that, on ARM64 macOS only for
now.

This saves at least ~1.4MiB of memory per V8 process. See below the
output of vmmap <PID>:

The "208K" regions are 256kiB code pages, minus the header and guard
pages, meaning that they are code chunks. The mapped file are the
remapped builtins, showing that they aren't copied, but remapped from
the binary.

V8 JavaScript Engine

V8 is Google's open source JavaScript engine.

V8 implements ECMAScript as specified in ECMA-262.

V8 is written in C++ and is used in Google Chrome, the open source browser from Google.

V8 can run standalone, or can be embedded into any C++ application.

V8 Project page: https://v8.dev/docs

Getting the Code

Checkout depot tools, and run

    fetch v8

This will checkout V8 into the directory v8 and fetch all of its dependencies. To stay up to date, run

    git pull origin
    gclient sync

For fetching all branches, add the following into your remote configuration in .git/config:

    fetch = +refs/branch-heads/*:refs/remotes/branch-heads/*
    fetch = +refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*
