The special empty value (that we use for array holes, Optional<Value>
when empty and a few other other placeholder/sentinel tasks) still
exists, but you now create one via JS::js_special_empty_value() and
check for it with Value::is_special_empty_value().
The main idea here is to make it very unlikely to accidentally create an
unexpected special empty value.
Before this change, it was possible for a second GC to get triggered
in the middle of a first GC, due to allocations happening in the
FinalizationRegistry cleanup host hook. To avoid this causing problems,
we add a "post-GC task" mechanism and use that to invoke the host hook
once all other GC activity is finished, and we've unset the "collecting
garbage" flag.
Note that the test included here only fails reliably when running with
the -g flag (collect garbage after each allocation).
Fixes#3051
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
