This implements bits and pieces to get the debugging functionality to
build. No testing has been done to check whether it actually works
because GCC doesn't currently work.
This removes all usages of the non-standard put helper method and
replaces all of it's usages with the specification required alternative
or with define_direct_property where appropriate.
This is a huge patch, I know. In hindsight this perhaps could've been
done slightly more incremental, but I started and then fixed everything
until it worked, and here we are. I tried splitting of some completely
unrelated changes into separate commits, however. Anyway.
This is a rewrite of most of Object, and by extension large parts of
Array, Proxy, Reflect, String, TypedArray, and some other things.
What we already had worked fine for about 90% of things, but getting the
last 10% right proved to be increasingly difficult with the current code
that sort of grew organically and is only very loosely based on the
spec - this became especially obvious when we started fixing a large
number of test262 failures.
Key changes include:
- 1:1 matching function names and parameters of all object-related
functions, to avoid ambiguity. Previously we had things like put(),
which the spec doesn't have - as a result it wasn't always clear which
need to be used.
- Better separation between object abstract operations and internal
methods - the former are always the same, the latter can be overridden
(and are therefore virtual). The internal methods (i.e. [[Foo]] in the
spec) are now prefixed with 'internal_' for clarity - again, it was
previously not always clear which AO a certain method represents,
get() could've been both Get and [[Get]] (I don't know which one it
was closer to right now).
Note that some of the old names have been kept until all code relying
on them is updated, but they are now simple wrappers around the
closest matching standard abstract operation.
- Simplifications of the storage layer: functions that write values to
storage are now prefixed with 'storage_' to make their purpose clear,
and as they are not part of the spec they should not contain any steps
specified by it. Much functionality is now covered by the layers above
it and was removed (e.g. handling of accessors, attribute checks).
- PropertyAttributes has been greatly simplified, and is being replaced
by PropertyDescriptor - a concept similar to the current
implementation, but more aligned with the actual spec. See the commit
message of the previous commit where it was introduced for details.
- As a bonus, and since I had to look at the spec a whole lot anyway, I
introduced more inline comments with the exact steps from the spec -
this makes it super easy to verify correctness.
- East-const all the things.
As a result of all of this, things are much more correct but a bit
slower now. Retaining speed wasn't a consideration at all, I have done
no profiling of the new code - there might be low hanging fruits, which
we can then harvest separately.
Special thanks to Idan for helping me with this by tracking down bugs,
updating everything outside of LibJS to work with these changes (LibWeb,
Spreadsheet, HackStudio), as well as providing countless patches to fix
regressions I introduced - there still are very few (we got it down to
5), but we also get many new passing test262 tests in return. :^)

This patch adds a custom JS Object type that will convert written
properties to their C++ equivalents, reflecting JS writes back
to the debugging session. This is better than a simple proxy because
printing this custom object works as expected because properties
still exist on the object as existing handlers expect.
This implements a dialog that can be used to evaluate a JS expression
in the HackStudio's Debugger context. It also implements simple
C++ Variable <-> JS Value conversion, allowing for JS expressions
to read/write variables in the debugger scope.
Currently, C++ structs are mapped to JS objects by way of a JS proxy,
however this leads to issues when printing, so this will be changed
in a later commit.
