The ScannerConstants class was originally static fields on the scanner class.
During creation of the stand-alone preparser and later isolates, it has been
moved into a separate class with a per-isolate instance.
It is used to hold caching unicode Predicate values.

This change renames the class to UnicodeCache, and passes a reference
to the instance down to methods that doesn't have an easy access to
an isolate (to avoid, e.g., having to do an Isolate::Current() for every
number parsed).

This commit adds current working versions of assembler, macro-assembler,
disassembler, and simulator.

All other mips arch files are replaced with stubbed-out versions that
will build.

Arch independent files are updated as needed to support building and
running mips.

The only test is cctest/test-assembler-mips, and this passes on the
simulator and on mips hardware.

Worth mentioning:
- Specialized versions of pixel array and store/loads inside the generic stubs have been removed, since to have parity for all external arrays, 8 different versions would have to be inlined/checked.
- There's a new constant in v8.h for external arrays with pixel array elements.

Non-moveable code-stube are allocated in large object space. They are only required on ARM where the different C-entry stubs are required to never move.

This gets rid of pre-computing these stubs and hope that they never move. Also for crankshaft the C-entry stub which saved doubles is not generated in the snapshot so it ends up being generated at runtime and potentially move.

It avoids strange performance behavior where hot functions do not
get optimized if there is no GC to promote them, and it does not seem

The main issue was due to multiple recompilations of functions.  Now
code objects are grouped by function using SFI object address.
JSFunction objects are no longer tracked, instead we track SFI object
moves. To pick a correct code version, we now sample return addresses
instead of JSFunction addresses.

tools/{linux|mac|windows}-tickprocessor scripts differentiate
between code optimization states for the same function
(using * and ~ prefixes introduced earlier).

DevTools CPU profiler treats all variants of function code as
a single function.

ll_prof treats each optimized variant as a separate entry, because
it can disassemble each one of them.

tickprocessor.py not updated -- it is deprecated and will be removed.

collection unless four or more garbage collections (scavenges) have
occurred.

The embedder should stop sending idle notifications once V8 returns
true from the IdleNotification call. This change is being defensive so
it will not hurt as badly if embedders continue to send idle
notifications.
