It turns out return a ThrowCompletionOr<T const&> is flawed, as the GCC
expansion trick used with TRY will always make a copy. PrimitiveString
is luckily the only such use case.
This makes construction of Utf16String fallible in OOM conditions. The
immediate impact is that PrimitiveString must then be fallible as well,
as it may either transcode UTF-8 to UTF-16, or create a UTF-16 string
from ropes.
There are a couple of places where it is very non-trivial to propagate
the error further. A FIXME has been added to those locations.
These instances were detected by searching for files that include
stdlib.h, but don't match the regex:
\\b(_abort|abort|abs|aligned_alloc|arc4random|arc4random_buf|arc4random_
uniform|atexit|atof|atoi|atol|atoll|bsearch|calloc|clearenv|div|div_t|ex
it|_Exit|EXIT_FAILURE|EXIT_SUCCESS|free|getenv|getprogname|grantpt|labs|

nv|setprogname|srand|srandom|strtod|strtof|strtol|strtold|strtoll|strtou
l|strtoull|system|unlockpt|unsetenv|wcstombs|wctomb)\\b
(Without the linebreaks.)
This regex is pessimistic, so there might be more files that don't
actually use anything from the stdlib.
In theory, one might use LibCPP to detect things like this
automatically, but let's do this one step after another.
Note that js_rope_string() has been folded into this, the old name was
misleading - it would not always create a rope string, only if both
sides are not empty strings. Use a three-argument create() overload
instead.
This will make it easier to support both string types at the same time
while we convert code, and tracking down remaining uses.
One big exception is Value::to_string() in LibJS, where the name is
dictated by the ToString AO.
We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
Instead we just use a specific constructor. With this set of
constructors using curly braces for constructing is highly recommended.
As then it will not do too many implicit conversions which could lead to
unexpected loss of data or calling the much slower double constructor.
Also to ensure we don't feed (Un)SignedBigInteger infinities we throw
RangeError earlier for Durations.
This is a continuation of the previous five commits.
A first big step into the direction of no longer having to pass a realm
(or currently, a global object) trough layers upon layers of AOs!
Unlike the create() APIs we can safely assume that this is only ever
called when a running execution context and therefore current realm
exists. If not, you can always manually allocate the Error and put it in
a Completion :^)
In the spec, throw exceptions implicitly use the current realm's
intrinsics as well: https://tc39.es/ecma262/#sec-throw-an-exception
This is a continuation of the previous two commits.
As allocating a JS cell already primarily involves a realm instead of a
global object, and we'll need to pass one to the allocate() function
itself eventually (it's bridged via the global object right now), the
create() functions need to receive a realm as well.
The plan is for this to be the highest-level function that actually
receives a realm and passes it around, AOs on an even higher level will
use the "current realm" concept via VM::current_realm() as that's what
the spec assumes; passing around realms (or global objects, for that
matter) on higher AO levels is pointless and unlike for allocating
individual objects, which may happen outside of regular JS execution, we
don't need control over the specific realm that is being used there.
