With the changes in this patch, it is now possible to add methods to both Torque's class and struct types. As a special case, "constructor" methods are used to initialize the values of classes and structs when they are constructed. The functionality in this patch includes: - The refactoring of class- and struct-handling code to share field and method declaration code between both. - Addition of the "%Allocate" intrinsic that allocates raw bytes to be allocated from the V8 GC's NewSpace heap as the basis for freshly created, initialized class objects. - An implementation of a CallMethodExpression AST node that enables calling methods and constructors, including special handling of passing through the "this" pointer for method calls on structs by reference. The syntax for struct construction using "{}" remains as before, but now calls the struct's matching constructor rather than implicitly initializing the struct fields with the initialization arguments. A new syntax for allocation classes is introduced: "new ClassName{constructor_param1, constructor_param1, ...}", which de-sugars to an %Allocate call followed by a call to the matching constructor. - class constructors can use the "super" keyword to initialize their super class. - If classes and struct do not have a constructor, Torque creates a default constructor for them based on their field declarations, where each field's initial value is assigned to a same-typed parameter to the the default constructor. The default constructor's parameters are in field-declaration order, and for derived classes, the default constructor automatically uses a "super" initialization call to initialize inherited fields. - Class field declarations now automatically create ".field" and ".field=" operators that create CSA-compatible object accessors. - Addition of a no-argument constructor for JSArrays that creates an empty, PACKED_SMI_ELEMENTS JSArray using the machinery added elsewhere in this patch.
