Zoltan Herczeg 41337dbd59 Small performance optimizations of the interpreter.
Short summary of the changes:
 - The ecma_reference_t is removed, and its helper functions are deleted.
 - The delete operation does not depend on ecma_reference_t anymore.
 - A new resolve function is added which returns the current value
   of a named binding in the context chain.
 - The vm_op_set_value does not perform type conversions when its arguments
   has the appropriate types.

Zoltan Herczeg 0a32c97755 Rework literal storage.
The new literal storage keeps ecma strings rather than having a
custom string implementation which duplicates the string management
routines. Conversions between string implementations are eliminated
which improved the performance by 4%.

Zoltan Herczeg d953fbb7be Branch opcodes have no result and either they have a stack argument
or no arguments at all. To improve the performance, the branch argument
flag is changed into a get argument type which eliminates a flag check
for all executed opcodes. Furthermore branch opcodes skip the put result
phase by changing the "break" to "continue" statements.

Zoltan Herczeg 5c852ab6fb Optimize LCache operation.
The cache stores only real properties now, because storing NULLs has
little benefit according to tests. Since only real properties are
stored now, there is no need to create real references to objects
and property names, which reduces the keeping of dead objects after
garbage collection.

Zoltan Herczeg 8c92972b2f Passing less number of arguments to a function is generally faster. So
the three boolean arguments of ecma_create_named_data_property and the
two boolean arguments of ecma_create_named_accessor_property are combined
into one uint8_t argument. On ARM-32 it is preferred to have less than
four arguments, since these arguments can be passed in registers.

Zoltan Herczeg ac3aa30c82 Micro optimizations of the virtual machine:
- Branch argument information is encoded in the vm byte
   code data, so CBC flags are not loaded anymore
 - The free_flags variable is removed from the vm_loop
 - Two cases are removed from "get arguments", argument
   processing is simplified
 - The two opcode tables are merged to one
 - The VM_OC_POP opcode has no result, so the break is changed to continue.
 - The VM_OC_PUSH_NUMBER can use ecma_make_integer_value.

Zoltan Herczeg 5ecf83ee8a Change internal property values of built-in primitive objects (namely Number,
String, Boolean) to use ecma-values. When the value of a Number object is
a small integer number, this change reduces the memory consumption, since no
double is allocated.

Zoltan Herczeg c7dcce4fc7 Refactor object property chain to use property pairs. The patch
itself seems a step back, but the primary aim is opening future
optimization opportunities. The list of changes follows:

 - Property is changed to be an abstract type, which has type, flags,
   and a value. It does not have a name anymore and property pointers
   cannot be compressed.
 - Full (32 bit) ecma values can be property values. This allows
   using non-compressed pointers for ecma values in the future.
 - The property chain is not restricted to the same item anymore,
   it can contain hash maps, arrays in the future.
