This patch begins the work of implementing JavaScript execution in a bytecode VM instead of an AST tree-walk interpreter. It's probably quite naive, but we have to start somewhere. The basic idea is that you call Bytecode::Generator::generate() on an AST node and it hands you back a Bytecode::Block filled with instructions that can then be interpreted by a Bytecode::Interpreter. This first version only implements two instructions: Load and Add. :^) Each bytecode block has infinity registers, and the interpreter resizes its register file to fit the block being executed. Two new `js` options are added in this patch as well: `-d` will dump the generated bytecode `-b` will execute the generated bytecode Note that unless `-d` and/or `-b` are specified, none of the bytecode related stuff in LibJS runs at all. This is implemented in parallel with the existing AST interpreter. :^)
