3c74dc9f4d LibJS: Segregate GC-allocated objects by type
This patch adds two macros to declare per-type allocators:

- JS_DECLARE_ALLOCATOR(TypeName)
- JS_DEFINE_ALLOCATOR(TypeName)

When used, they add a type-specific CellAllocator that the Heap will
delegate allocation requests to.

The result of this is that GC objects of the same type always end up
within the same HeapBlock, drastically reducing the ability to perform
type confusion attacks.

It also improves HeapBlock utilization, since each block now has cells
sized exactly to the type used within that block. (Previously we only
had a handful of block sizes available, and most GC allocations ended
up with a large amount of slack in their tails.)

There is a small performance hit from this, but I'm sure we can make
up for it elsewhere.

Note that the old size-based allocators still exist, and we fall back
to them for any type that doesn't have its own CellAllocator.

35c9aa7c05 LibJS: Hide all the constructors!
Now that the GC allocator is able to invoke Cell subclass constructors
directly via friendship, we no longer need to keep them public. :^)

b99cc7d050 LibJS+LibWeb: Replace GlobalObject with Realm in create() functions
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.

This is our way of implementing the [[ErrorData]] internal slot, which
is being used in Object.prototype.toString().
