1997187 - Add preference and shell option for `iterator chunking` proposal

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: JavaScript: Standard Library, enhancement)

Description

[Dan Minor [:dminor]]

As a first step to implementing iterator chunking, we should add a preference and shell option.

First, make a new preference called javascript.options.experimental.iterator_chunking, you can use this preference as an example of how to do this.

Next, we need to add a command line option to the JavaScript shell:

1. First, add an option called: --enable-iterator-chunking, like this.
2. Then, set the new pref when the option is passed, like this.

Here's a recent example of doing this for another proposal that you can look at: https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D270298.

Then check that everything still compiles, and submit your patches. Thanks!
