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.

Browsers such as Chrome and Firefox apply an arbitrary scale to the
current font size if `normal` is used for `line-height`. Firefox uses
1.2 while Chrome uses 1.15. Let's go with the latter for now, it's
relatively easy to change if we ever want to go back on that decision.
This also requires updating the expectations for a lot of layout tests.
The upside of this is that it's a bit easier to compare our layout
results to other browsers', especially Chrome.
This is a normative change in the ECMA-262 spec. See:
0fb1859
As noted in the PR for this change, this is not actually testable via
either test262 or WPT.
`var` bindings are never in the temporal dead zone (TDZ), and so we
know accessing them will not throw.
We now take advantage of this by having a specialized environment
binding value getter that doesn't check for exceptional cases.

Before this change, setting a global would end up as SetLexicalBinding.
That instruction always failed to cache the access if the global was a
property of the global object.

Note that MicroBench/for-of.js was more of a "set global" benchmark
before this. After this change, it's actually a for..of benchmark. :^)
We were spending a lot of time removing each property name from the
iterator's underlying HashMap while iterating over it. This wasn't
actually necessary, so let's stop doing it and instead just iterate
over the property names with a stored HashTable iterator.

Before this change, we would call [[OwnPropertyKeys]] on the target
objects, then convert the returned keys from Value into PropertyKey.
Then, when actually iterating, we'd convert them back into Value again.
This was particularly costly for numeric property keys, since we had
to go through string-from-number construction.
Now, we simply keep the original values returned by [[OwnPropertyKeys]]
around and use them for the enumeration.

This is a GC-aware wrapper around AK::HashMap. Entry values are treated
as GC roots, much like the GC::RootVector we already had.
We also provide GC::OrderedRootHashMap as a convenience.
We were previously unable to use simdutf for base64 decoding operations
other than "loose". Upstream has added support for the "strict" and
"stop-before-partial" operations, so let's make use of them!
I was investigating an optimization in this area, and while it
didn't seem to have a noticable improvement, it still seems
useful to apply this change.
ParsedFontFace and FontLoader now both keep track of which
CSSStyleSheet (if any) was the source of the font-face, so the URLs can
be completed correctly.
This is the simplest fix I could find that resolves a buggy interaction
between this and the CSS fetch algorithms, which also doesn't regress
anything. (As far as I can tell.)
Convert FontLoader to use fetch_a_style_resource(). ResourceLoader used
to keep its downloaded data around for us, but fetch doesn't, so we use
Gfx::Typeface::try_load_from_temporary_memory() so that the font has a
permanent copy of that data.
Typeface::try_load_from_externally_owned_memory() relies on that
external owner keeping the memory around. However, neither WOFF nor
WOFF2 do so - they both create separate ByteBuffers to hold the TTF
data. So, rename them to make it clearer that they don't have any
requirements on the byte owner.
Even though this code was already optimized to re-use a single result
object, returning { value, done } directly in output parameters still
provides a substantial speedup.

Apply a little ensure_capacity() to avoid excessive rehashing of the
property key table when enumerating a large number of properties.

Shared workers are essentially just workers that may be accessed from
scripts within the same origin. There are plenty of FIXMEs here (mostly
building on existing worker FIXMEs that are already in place), but this
lets us run the shared worker variants of WPT tests.
