This introduces a new flag --async-stack-traces, which enables zero-cost
async stack traces. This enriches the non-standard Error.stack property
with async stack frames computed from walking up the promise chains and
collecting all the await suspension points along the way. In Error.stack
these async frames are marked with "async" to make it possible to
distinguish them from regular frames, for example:
```
Error: Some error message
at bar (<anonymous>)
at async foo (<anonymous>)
```
It's zero-cost because no additional information is collected during the
execution of the program, but only the information already present in the
promise chains is used to reconstruct an approximation of the async stack
in case of an exception. But this approximation is limited to suspension
points at await's in async functions. This depends on a recent ECMAScript
specification change, flagged behind --harmony-await-optimization and
implied the --async-stack-traces flag. Without this change there's no
way to get from the outer promise of an async function to the rest of
the promise chain, since the link is broken by the indirection introduced
by await.
For async functions the special outer promise, named .promise in the
Parser desugaring, is now forcible allocated to stack slot 0 during
scope resolution, to make it accessible to the stack frame construction
logic. Note that this first prototype doesn't yet work fully support
async generators and might have other limitations.
