This patch removes the concept of reservations and a specialized deserializer allocator, and instead makes the deserializer allocate directly with the Heap's Allocate method. The major consequence of this is that the GC can now run during deserialization, which means that: a) Deserialized objects are visible to the GC, and b) Objects that the deserializer/deserialized objects point to can move. Point a) is mostly not a problem due to previous work in making deserialized objects "GC valid", i.e. making sure that they have a valid size before any subsequent allocation/safepoint. We now additionally have to initialize the allocated space with a valid tagged value -- this is a magic Smi value to keep "uninitialized" checks simple. Point b) is solved by Handlifying the deserializer. This involves changing any vectors of objects into vectors of Handles, and any object keyed map into an IdentityMap (we can't use Handles as keys because the object's address is no longer a stable hash). Back-references can no longer be direct chunk offsets, so instead the deserializer stores a Handle to each deserialized object, and the backreference is an index into this handle array. This encoding could be optimized in the future with e.g. a second pass over the serialized array which emits a different bytecode for objects that are and aren't back-referenced. Additionally, the slot-walk over objects to initialize them can no longer use absolute slot offsets, as again an object may move and its slot address would become invalid. Now, slots are walked as relative offsets to a Handle to the object, or as absolute slots for the case of root pointers. A concept of "slot accessor" is introduced to share the code between these two modes, and writing the slot (including write barriers) is abstracted into this accessor. Finally, the Code body walk is modified to deserialize all objects referred to by RelocInfos before doing the RelocInfo walk itself. This is because RelocInfoIterator uses raw pointers, so we cannot allocate during a RelocInfo walk. As a drive-by, the VariableRawData bytecode is tweaked to use tagged size rather than byte size -- the size is expected to be tagged-aligned anyway, so now we get an extra few bits in the size encoding.
