1335862 - Implement mayResolve for arguments objects

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: JavaScript Engine, defect, P2)

Description

[Tom S [:evilpie]]

jQuery uses this pattern where they lookup 'nodeType' on everything you pass to it to check if it's a Node. Arguments objects are also used in such a way, but we don't attach property not found IC stubs, because arguments objects have a resolve function, but don't implement mayResolve. This should be an easy perf win.

I had a patch for this anyway, and I just saw this as an insignificant problem that showed up on Browsermark.

obj_resolve actually only checks for JSID_IS_INT, probably because we don't support args length > JSID_INT_MAX/INT32_MAX.
