[turbofan] Insert dummy values when changing from None type.

Currently we choose the MachineRepresentation::kNone representation for
values of Type::None, and when converting values from the kNone representation
we use "impossible" conversions that will crash at runtime. This
assumes that the impossible conversions should never be hit (the only
way to produce the impossible values is to perform an always-failing
runtime check on a value, such as Smi-checking a string). Note that
this assumes that the runtime check is executed before the impossible
convesrion.

Introducing BitwiseOr type feedback broke this in two ways:

- we always pick Word32 representation for bitwise-or, so the
  impossible conversion does not trigger (it only triggers with
  None representation), and we could end up with unsupported
  conversions from Word32.

- even if we inserted impossible conversions, they are pure conversions.
  Since untagging, bitwise-or operations are also pure, we could hoist
  all these before the smi check of the inputs and we could hit the
  impossible conversions before we get to the smi check.

This CL addresses this by just providing dummy values for conversions
from the Type::None type. It also removes the impossible-to-* conversions.

V8 JavaScript Engine

V8 is Google's open source JavaScript engine.

V8 implements ECMAScript as specified in ECMA-262.

V8 is written in C++ and is used in Google Chrome, the open source browser from Google.

V8 can run standalone, or can be embedded into any C++ application.

Getting the Code

Checkout depot tools, and run

    fetch v8

This will checkout V8 into the directory v8 and fetch all of its dependencies. To stay up to date, run

    git pull origin
    gclient sync

For fetching all branches, add the following into your remote configuration in .git/config:

    fetch = +refs/branch-heads/*:refs/remotes/branch-heads/*
    fetch = +refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*
