location to an Expression AST node from the node's parent to the node
itself.

This allows an inherited code generation context from a parent node to
be passed arbitrarily far down the tree (eg, the subexpression of a
unary not is in the same context as the unary expression itself, the
then and else subexpressions of the ternary operator are in the same
context as the whole expression, and so forth).

We do not yet take advantage of this in the backend (eg, the right
subexpression of short-circuited OR is still compiled by using the
parent's destination location, rather than the subexpression's
itself).

implementation is not yet complete (it prints only the node name for
some AST constructs) and does not serialize everything needed to
reconstitute the AST.

It is motivated by a desire to prototype source-to-source
transformations in JavaScript itself (or anything else that can grok
JSON), but it should have other uses too.

Feedback is welcome.

while, and for loops.

Previously they were distinguished by a type field, which required
runtime asserts to avoid invalid nodes (since not all loop types have
the same internal structure).  Now they C++ type system is used to
require well-formed loop ASTs.

Because they do not share compilation code, we had very large
functions in the code generators that merely did a runtime dispatch to
a specific implementation based on the type.

node at code generation time.

This issue was raised by Brett Wilson while reviewing my changelist for readability. Craig Silverstein (one of C++ SG maintainers) confirmed that we should declare one namespace per line. Our way of namespaces closing seems not violating style guides (there is no clear agreement on it), so I left it intact.

Choice nodes may know that they are never not at the start of input.
This can remove start_of_input assertions in cases where they are statically known to fail.
The initial loop is unrolled once if the regexp might check for the start of input. Only the first iteration may be at the start, the following loop knows that it isn't.

  canonicalize maps for object literals. JSON objects
  with the same set of properties names will then
  share the same map.
  This reduces the amount of generated code associated 
  with object literals.
- Added a flag canonicalize_object_literal_maps.
  (default true)
- Changed the format of a function's literal array.
  Only the global context is now stored in the literal prefix.

Fixed bug in JSObject::GetPropertyAttributePostInterceptor where map transitions would count as properties.

Allowed aliased eval invocations by treating them as evals in the global context. This may change in the future.

Added support for accessing the last entered context through the API and renamed Context::Current to Context::GetCurrent and Context::GetSecurityContext to Context::GetCurrentSecurityContext.

Fixed bug in the debugger that would cause the debugger scripts to be recursively loaded and changed all disabling of interrupts to be block-structured.

Made snapshot data read-only to allow it to be more easily shared across multiple users of V8 when linked as a shared library.
