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.

72c9f56c66 LibJS: Make Heap::allocate<T>() infallible
Stop worrying about tiny OOMs. Work towards #20449.

While going through these, I also changed the function signature in many
places where returning ThrowCompletionOr<T> is no longer necessary.

b84f8fb55b LibJS: Make intrinsics getters return NonnullGCPtr
Some of these are allocated upon initialization of the intrinsics, and
some lazily, but in neither case the getters actually return a nullptr.

This saves us a whole bunch of pointer dereferences (as NonnullGCPtr has
an `operator T&()`), and also has the interesting side effect of forcing
us to explicitly use the FunctionObject& overload of call(), as passing
a NonnullGCPtr is ambigous - it could implicitly be turned into a Value
_or_ a FunctionObject& (so we have to dereference manually).

b75b7f0c0d LibJS+Everywhere: Propagate Cell::initialize errors from Heap::allocate
Callers that are already in a fallible context will now TRY to allocate
cells. Callers in infallible contexts get a FIXME.
