    Original change's description:
    > [map] Support in-place field representation changes.
    > 
    > This adds a new flag --modify-field-representation-inplace (enabled by
    > default), which lets the runtime perform field representation changes
    > for Smi to Tagged or for HeapObject to Tagged in-place instead of
    > creating new maps and marking the previous map tree as deprecated.
    > 
    > That means we create (a lot) fewer Maps and DescriptorArrays in the
    > beginning and also need to self-heal fewer objects later (migrating
    > off the deprecated maps). In TurboFan we just take the "field owner
    > dependency" whenever we use the field representation, which is very
    > similar to what we already do for the field types. That means if we
    > change the representation of a field that we used in optimized code,
    > we will simply deoptimize that code and have TurboFan potentially
    > later optimize it again with the new field representation.
    > 
    > On the Speedometer2/ElmJS-TodoMVC test, this reduces the total execution
    > time from around 415ms to around 352ms, which corresponds to a **15%**
    > improvement. The overall Speedometer2 score improves from around 74.1
    > to around 78.3 (on local runs with content_shell), corresponding to a
    > **5.6%** improvement here. 🎉

    > On the CNN desktop browsing story, it seems that we reduce map space
    > utilization/fragmentation by about 4-5%. But since we allocate a lot
    > less (fewer Maps and DescriptorArrays) we also significantly change
    > the GC timing, which heavily influences the results here. So take this
    > with a grain of salt. 🤷‍♂️

    > Note: For Double fields, this doesn't change anything, meaning they
    > still create new maps and deprecate the previous map trees.
