This commit un-deprecates DeprecatedString, and repurposes it as a byte
string.
As the null state has already been removed, there are no other
particularly hairy blockers in repurposing this type as a byte string
(what it _really_ is).

This patch makes IteratorRecord an Object. Although it's not exposed to
author code, this does allow us to store it in a VM register.
Now that we can store it in a VM register, we don't need to convert it
back and forth between IteratorRecord and Object when accessing it from
bytecode.
The big win here is avoiding 3 [[Get]] accesses on every iteration step
of for..of loops. There are also a bunch of smaller efficiencies gained.
20% speed-up on this microbenchmark:
function go(a) {
for (const p of a) {
}
}
const a = [];
a.length = 1_000_000;
go(a);
(Instead of MarkedVector<Value>.) This is a step towards not storing
argument lists in MarkedVector<Value> at all. Note that they still end
up in MarkedVectors since that's what ExecutionContext has.
This patch makes it possible for JS::Object::internal_set() to populate
a CacheablePropertyMetadata, and uses this to implement a basic
monomorphic cache for the most common form of property write access.
There are a lot of native C++ functions that will be used by both the
bytecode interpreter and jitted code. Let's put them in their own file
instead of having them in Interpreter.cpp.
