Being really close to Object.prototype.valueOf() name wise makes this
unnecessarily confusing - while it sometimes serves as the
implementation of a valueOf() function, it's an abstraction which the
spec doesn't have.
Use the appropriate getters to retrieve specific internal slots instead,
most commonly [[FooData]] from the primitive wrapper objects.
For the Object class specifically, use the Value(Object*) ctor instead.
Also add slightly richer parse errors now that we can include a string
literal with returned errors.
This will allow us to use TRY() when working with JSON data.
The old versions were renamed to JS_DECLARE_OLD_NATIVE_FUNCTION and
JS_DEFINE_OLD_NATIVE_FUNCTION, and will be eventually removed once all
native functions were converted to the new format.
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.
The call to enumerable_own_property_names in the non-array case was
missing an exception check.
Fixes 1 test262 case (JSON/parse/reviver-object-own-keys-err.js)
This is a huge patch, I know. In hindsight this perhaps could've been
done slightly more incremental, but I started and then fixed everything
until it worked, and here we are. I tried splitting of some completely
unrelated changes into separate commits, however. Anyway.
This is a rewrite of most of Object, and by extension large parts of
Array, Proxy, Reflect, String, TypedArray, and some other things.
What we already had worked fine for about 90% of things, but getting the
last 10% right proved to be increasingly difficult with the current code
that sort of grew organically and is only very loosely based on the
spec - this became especially obvious when we started fixing a large
number of test262 failures.
Key changes include:
- 1:1 matching function names and parameters of all object-related
functions, to avoid ambiguity. Previously we had things like put(),
which the spec doesn't have - as a result it wasn't always clear which
need to be used.
- Better separation between object abstract operations and internal
methods - the former are always the same, the latter can be overridden
(and are therefore virtual). The internal methods (i.e. [[Foo]] in the
spec) are now prefixed with 'internal_' for clarity - again, it was
previously not always clear which AO a certain method represents,
get() could've been both Get and [[Get]] (I don't know which one it
was closer to right now).
Note that some of the old names have been kept until all code relying
on them is updated, but they are now simple wrappers around the
closest matching standard abstract operation.
- Simplifications of the storage layer: functions that write values to
storage are now prefixed with 'storage_' to make their purpose clear,
and as they are not part of the spec they should not contain any steps
specified by it. Much functionality is now covered by the layers above
it and was removed (e.g. handling of accessors, attribute checks).
- PropertyAttributes has been greatly simplified, and is being replaced
by PropertyDescriptor - a concept similar to the current
implementation, but more aligned with the actual spec. See the commit
message of the previous commit where it was introduced for details.
- As a bonus, and since I had to look at the spec a whole lot anyway, I
introduced more inline comments with the exact steps from the spec -
this makes it super easy to verify correctness.
- East-const all the things.
As a result of all of this, things are much more correct but a bit
slower now. Retaining speed wasn't a consideration at all, I have done
no profiling of the new code - there might be low hanging fruits, which
we can then harvest separately.
Special thanks to Idan for helping me with this by tracking down bugs,
updating everything outside of LibJS to work with these changes (LibWeb,
Spreadsheet, HackStudio), as well as providing countless patches to fix
regressions I introduced - there still are very few (we got it down to
5), but we also get many new passing test262 tests in return. :^)

Specifically, this now explicitly takes the length, adds missing
exceptions checks to calls with user-supplied lengths, takes and uses
the prototype argument, and fixes some spec non-conformance in
ArrayConstructor and its native functions around the use of ArrayCreate
This PR does not fix the main issue with our current implementation:
The specification requires that we first check the JSON string for
validity with an ECMA-404 compliant parser, and then evaluate it as if
it was javascript code, of which we do neither at the moment.
Requires a bunch of find-and-replace updates across LibJS, but
constructing a PropertyName from a nullptr Symbol* should not be
possible - let's enforce this at the compiler level instead of using
VERIFY() (and already dereference Symbol pointers at the call site).
Value.{cpp,h} has become a dumping ground, let's change that.
Things that are directly related to Values (e.g. bitwise/binary ops,
equality related functions) can remain, but everything else that's not a
Value or Object method and globally required (not just a static function
somewhere) is being moved.
Also convert to east-const while we're here.
I haven't touched IteratorOperations.{cpp,h}, it seems fine to still
have those separately.
This now matches the spec's OrdinaryObjectCreate() across the board:
instead of implicitly setting the created object's prototype to
%Object.prototype% and then in many cases setting it to a nullptr right
away, it now has an 'Object* prototype' parameter with _no default
value_. This makes the code easier to compare with the spec, very clear
in terms of what prototype is being used as well as avoiding unnecessary
shape transitions.
Also fixes a couple of cases were we weren't setting the correct
prototype.
There's no reason to assume that the object would not be empty (as in
having own properties), so let's follow our existing pattern of
Type::create(...) and simply call it 'create'.
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
This was missing from Value::is_array(), which is equivalent to the
spec's IsArray() abstract operation - it treats a Proxy value with an
Array target object as being an Array.
It can throw, so needs both the global object and an exception check
now.

(...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.
