    No longer desugar the exponentiation (**) operator. · b97567a9
    Georg Neis authored
    Prior to this change, the exponentiation operator was rewritten by the
    parser to a call of the Math.pow builtin. However, Math.pow does not
    accept BigInt arguments, while the exponentiation operator must accept
    them.
    
    This CL
    - removes the parser's special treatment of ** and **=, treating them
      like any other binary op instead.
    - adds a TFC builtin Exponentiate that does the right thing for
      all inputs.
    - adds interpreter bytecodes Exp and ExpSmi whose handlers call the
      Exponentiate builtin. For simplicity, they currently always collect
      kAny feedback.
    - adds a Turbofan operator JSExponentiate with a typed-lowering to
      the existing NumberPow and a generic-lowering to the Exponentiate
      builtin. There is currently no speculative lowering.
    
    Note that exponentiation for BigInts is actually not implemented yet,
    so we can't yet test it.
