    [turbofan] Implement on-stack returns (Intel) · 1e49864f
    Andreas Haas authored
    Add the ability to return (multiple) return values on the stack:
    
    - Extend stack frames with a new buffer region for return slots.
      This region is located at the end of a caller's frame such that
      its slots can be indexed as caller frame slots in a callee
      (located beyond its parameters) and assigned return values.
    - Adjust stack frame constructon and deconstruction accordingly.
    - Extend linkage computation to support register plus stack returns.
    - Reserve return slots in caller frame when respective calls occur.
    - Introduce and generate architecture instructions ('peek') for
      reading back results from return slots in the caller.
    - Aggressive tests.
    - Some minor clean-up.
    
    So far, only ia32 and x64 are implemented.
