By following the spec to the letter, our mapped arguments objects ended
up with many extra GC allocations:
- 1 extra Object for the internal [[ParameterMap]].
- 2 extra NativeFunctions for each mapped parameter accessor.
- 1 extra Accessor to hold the aforementioned NativeFunctions.
This patch removes all those allocations and lets ArgumentsObject model
the desired behavior in custom C++ instead of using script primitives.
1.06x speedup on Speedometer's TodoMVC-jQuery.
This is *extremely* common on the web, but barely shows up at all in
JavaScript benchmarks.
A typical example is setting Element.innerHTML on a HTMLDivElement.
HTMLDivElement doesn't have innerHTML, so it has to travel up the
prototype chain until it finds it.
Before this change, we didn't cache this at all, so we had to travel
the prototype chain every time a setter like this was used.
We now use the same mechanism we already had for GetBydId and cache
PutById setter accesses in the prototype chain as well.
1.74x speedup on MicroBench/setter-in-prototype-chain.js
Resulting in a massive rename across almost everywhere! Alongside the
namespace change, we now have the following names:
* JS::NonnullGCPtr -> GC::Ref
* JS::GCPtr -> GC::Ptr
* JS::HeapFunction -> GC::Function
* JS::CellImpl -> GC::Cell
* JS::Handle -> GC::Root
