This patch modifies irregexp's error handling. Instead of representing errors as C strings, they are represented as an enumeration value (RegExpError), and only converted to strings when throwing the error object in regexp.cc. This makes it significantly easier to integrate into SpiderMonkey. A few notes: 1. Depending on whether the stack overflows during parsing or analysis, the stack overflow message can vary ("Stack overflow" or "Maximum call stack size exceeded"). I kept that behaviour in this patch, under the assumption that stack overflow messages are (sadly) the sorts of things that real world code ends up depending on. 2. Depending on the point in code where the error was identified, invalid unicode escapes could be reported as "Invalid Unicode escape", "Invalid unicode escape", or "Invalid Unicode escape sequence". I fervently hope that nobody depends on the specific wording of a syntax error, so I standardized on the first one. (It was both the most common, and the most consistent with other "Invalid X escape" messages.) 3. In addition to changing the representation, this patch also adds an error_pos field to RegExpParser and RegExpCompileData, which stores the position at which an error occurred. This is used by SpiderMonkey to provide more helpful messages about where a syntax error occurred in large regular expressions. 4. This model is closer to V8's existing MessageTemplate infrastructure. I considered trying to integrate it more closely with MessageTemplate, but since one of our stated goals for this project was to make it easier to use irregexp outside of V8, I decided to hold off.
