    [es2015] Precompute the descriptive string for symbols. · e8757382
    bmeurer authored
    Previously the String constructor and the Symbol.prototype.toString
    methods had to compute the descriptive string for a Symbol on the fly,
    which can produce a lot of garbage when this happens a lot, i.e. when
    the String representation of a Symbol is used often. Now instead of
    doing this on-demand we can just do it upfront when creating the Symbol.
    
    That way we also ensure that we won't throw an exception when accessing
    the descriptive string of a Symbol, due to potential String length
    overflow, but have the exception during Symbol creation upfront, which
    is a lot less surprising behavior.
