ager@chromium.org 24d22b567a Introduce an API to force the deletion of a property ignoring
interceptors and dont-delete attributes.

Minor change to the behavior of eval: throw exception when calling
eval in a context for which the global has been detached.  This
matches the behavior of both Firefox and Safari post navigation in the
browser.

* longer used.

/**
* A FunctionTemplate is used to create functions at runtime. There
* can only be one function created from a FunctionTemplate in a
* context.
*
* A FunctionTemplate can have properties, these properties are added to the
* function object when it is created.
*
* A FunctionTemplate has a corresponding instance template which is
* used to create object instances when the function is used as a
* constructor. Properties added to the instance template are added to
* each object instance.
*
* A FunctionTemplate can have a prototype template. The prototype template
* is used to create the prototype object of the function.
*
* The following example shows how to use a FunctionTemplate:
*
* \code
* v8::Local<v8::FunctionTemplate> t = v8::FunctionTemplate::New();
* t->Set("func_property", v8::Number::New(1));
*
* v8::Local<v8::Template> proto_t = t->PrototypeTemplate();
* proto_t->Set("proto_method", v8::FunctionTemplate::New(InvokeCallback));
* proto_t->Set("proto_const", v8::Number::New(2));
*
* v8::Local<v8::ObjectTemplate> instance_t = t->InstanceTemplate();
* instance_t->SetAccessor("instance_accessor", InstanceAccessorCallback);
* instance_t->SetNamedPropertyHandler(PropertyHandlerCallback, ...);
* instance_t->Set("instance_property", Number::New(3));
*
* v8::Local<v8::Function> function = t->GetFunction();
* v8::Local<v8::Object> instance = function->NewInstance();
* \endcode
*
* Let's use "function" as the JS variable name of the function object
* and "instance" for the instance object created above. The function
* and the instance will have the following properties:
*
* \code
* func_property in function == true;
* function.func_property == 1;
*
* function.prototype.proto_method() invokes 'InvokeCallback'
* function.prototype.proto_const == 2;
*
* instance instanceof function == true;
* instance.instance_accessor calls 'InstanceAccessorCallback'
* instance.instance_property == 3;
* \endcode
*
* A FunctionTemplate can inherit from another one by calling the
* FunctionTemplate::Inherit method. The following graph illustrates
* the semantics of inheritance:
*
* \code
* FunctionTemplate Parent -> Parent() . prototype -> { }
* ^ ^
* | Inherit(Parent) | .__proto__
* | |
* FunctionTemplate Child -> Child() . prototype -> { }
* \endcode
*
* A FunctionTemplate 'Child' inherits from 'Parent', the prototype
* object of the Child() function has __proto__ pointing to the
* Parent() function's prototype object. An instance of the Child
* function has all properties on Parent's instance templates.
*
* Let Parent be the FunctionTemplate initialized in the previous
* section and create a Child FunctionTemplate by:
*
* \code
* Local<FunctionTemplate> parent = t;
* Local<FunctionTemplate> child = FunctionTemplate::New();
* child->Inherit(parent);
*
* Local<Function> child_function = child->GetFunction();
* Local<Object> child_instance = child_function->NewInstance();
* \endcode
*
* The Child function and Child instance will have the following
* properties:
*
* \code
* child_func.prototype.__proto__ == function.prototype;
* child_instance.instance_accessor calls 'InstanceAccessorCallback'
* child_instance.instance_property == 3;
* \endcode

/**
* Multiple threads in V8 are allowed, but only one thread at a time
* is allowed to use V8. The definition of 'using V8' includes
* accessing handles or holding onto object pointers obtained from V8
* handles. It is up to the user of V8 to ensure (perhaps with
* locking) that this constraint is not violated.
*
* If you wish to start using V8 in a thread you can do this by constructing
* a v8::Locker object. After the code using V8 has completed for the
* current thread you can call the destructor. This can be combined
* with C++ scope-based construction as follows:
*
* \code
* ...
* {
* v8::Locker locker;
* ...
* // Code using V8 goes here.
* ...
* } // Destructor called here
* \endcode
*
* If you wish to stop using V8 in a thread A you can do this by either
* by destroying the v8::Locker object as above or by constructing a
* v8::Unlocker object:
*
* \code
* {
* v8::Unlocker unlocker;
* ...
* // Code not using V8 goes here while V8 can run in another thread.
* ...
* } // Destructor called here.
* \endcode
*
* The Unlocker object is intended for use in a long-running callback
* from V8, where you want to release the V8 lock for other threads to
* use.
*
* The v8::Locker is a recursive lock. That is, you can lock more than
* once in a given thread. This can be useful if you have code that can
* be called either from code that holds the lock or from code that does
* not. The Unlocker is not recursive so you can not have several
* Unlockers on the stack at once, and you can not use an Unlocker in a
* thread that is not inside a Locker's scope.
*
* An unlocker will unlock several lockers if it has to and reinstate
* the correct depth of locking on its destruction. eg.:
*
* \code
* // V8 not locked.
* {
* v8::Locker locker;
* // V8 locked.
* {
* v8::Locker another_locker;
* // V8 still locked (2 levels).
* {
* v8::Unlocker unlocker;
* // V8 not locked.
* }
* // V8 locked again (2 levels).
* }
* // V8 still locked (1 level).
* }
* // V8 Now no longer locked.
