This commit replaces the usage of String::starts_with with
Utf8View::starts_with, which first decodes the utf8 encoded
string, and as such can take things like overlong encoded
sequences into account (which could otherwise cause the prefix
check to be inconsistent with the following code points check).
Just like to_size_t() - which was already removed in f369229 - this is
non-standard, use to_length() instead. One remaining use was removed,
and I'm glad it's gone. :^)
We now store 32-bit integers as 32-bit integers directly which avoids
having to convert them from doubles when they're only used as 32-bit
integers anyway. :^)
This patch feels a bit incomplete and there's a lot of opportunities
to take advantage of this information. We'll have to find and exploit
them eventually.
(...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.
