This removes all usages of the non-standard define_property helper
method and replaces all it's usages with the specification required
alternative or with define_direct_property where appropriate.
This makes the implicit run-time assertion in PropertyName::to_string()
into an explicit compile-time requirement, removes a wasteful FlyString
-> PropertyName -> FlyString construction from NativeFunction::create()
and allows setting the function name to a null string for anonymous
native functions.
Some of the code assumed that chars were always signed while that is
not the case on ARM hosts.
Also, some of the code tried to use EOF (-1) in a way similar to what
fgetc() does, however instead of storing the characters in an int
variable a char was used.
While this seemed to work it also meant that character 0xFF would be
incorrectly seen as an end-of-file.
Careful reading of fgetc() reveals that fgetc() stores character
data in an int where valid characters are in the range of 0-255 and
the EOF value is explicitly outside of that range (usually -1).
As mentioned on Discord earlier, we'll add these to all new functions
going forward - this is the backfill. Reasons:
- It makes you look at the spec, implementing based on MDN or V8
behavior is a no-go
- It makes finding the various functions that are non-compliant easier,
in the future everything should either have such a comment or, if it's
not from the spec at all, a comment explaining why that is the case
- It makes it easier to check whether a certain abstract operation is
implemented in LibJS, not all of them use the same name as the spec.
E.g. RejectPromise() is Promise::reject()
- It makes it easier to reason about vm.arguments(), e.g. when the
function has a rest parameter
- It makes it easier to see whether a certain function is from a
proposal or Annex B
Also:
- Add arguments to all functions and abstract operations that already
had a comment
- Fix some outdated section numbers
- Replace some ecma-international.org URLs with tc39.es
Since theres no way to drop the arguments before the call to the
constructor (or to signal to the constructor that it was not called
directly), we simply reuse the code for the no arguments provided
special case. (And to prevent code duplication, the code was extracted
into the separate static function Date::now(GlobalObject&).
When using Core::DateTime::from_timestamp(0) the resulting Date is
1970-01-01 00:00:00 in UTC, which might be something different in local
time - this is incorrect and relevant as invalid Dates can be made valid
later on.

(...and ASSERT_NOT_REACHED => VERIFY_NOT_REACHED)
Since all of these checks are done in release builds as well,
let's rename them to VERIFY to prevent confusion, as everyone is
used to assertions being compiled out in release.
We can introduce a new ASSERT macro that is specifically for debug
checks, but I'm doing this wholesale conversion first since we've
accumulated thousands of these already, and it's not immediately
obvious which ones are suitable for ASSERT.
