    [heap] Avoid the use of cells to point from code to new-space objects. · 2d2087b7
    ahaas authored
    Cells were needed originally because there was no typed remembered set to
    record direct pointers from code space to new space. A previous
    CL (https://codereview.chromium.org/2003553002/) already introduced
    the remembered set, this CL uses it.
    
    This CL
    * stores direct pointers in code objects, even if the target is in new space,
    * records the slot of the pointer in typed-old-to-new remembered set,
    * adds a list which stores weak code-to-new-space references,
    * adds a test to test-heap.cc for weak code-to-new-space references,
    * removes prints in tail-call-megatest.js
