    PPC: [builtins] Simplify String constructor code. · 4ca74e4f

    Original commit message:
        The String constructor was somewhat complex with a lot of micro
        optimizations that are not relevant or even misguided. It would be
        really hard to port that code to ES6, which requires String to be
        subclassable. So as a first step we reduced the necessary complexity
        to the bare minimum (also removing the last user of the fairly complex
        MacroAssembler::LookupNumberStringCache method).
    
        This also removes the counters for the String constructor, which
        were not properly exposed anymore (and not kept in sync with inlined
        versions of the String constructor anyway).
