LibJS: Start fleshing out a bytecode for the JavaScript engine :^) This patch begins the work of implementing JavaScript execution in a bytecode VM instead of an AST tree-walk interpreter. It's probably quite naive, but we have to start somewhere. The basic idea is that you call Bytecode::Generator::generate() on an AST node and it hands you back a Bytecode::Block filled with instructions that can then be interpreted by a Bytecode::Interpreter. This first version only implements two instructions: Load and Add. :^) Each bytecode block has infinity registers, and the interpreter resizes its register file to fit the block being executed. Two new `js` options are added in this patch as well: `-d` will dump the generated bytecode `-b` will execute the generated bytecode Note that unless `-d` and/or `-b` are specified, none of the bytecode related stuff in LibJS runs at all. This is implemented in parallel with the existing AST interpreter. :^)

LibJS: Devirtualize and pack the bytecode stream :^) This patch changes the LibJS bytecode to be a stream of instructions packed one-after-the-other in contiguous memory, instead of a vector of OwnPtr<Instruction>. This should be a lot more cache-friendly. :^) Instructions are also devirtualized and instead have a type field using a new Instruction::Type enum. To iterate over a bytecode stream, one must now use Bytecode::InstructionStreamIterator.
