SM52 essentially replaces JSRuntime with JSContext (though JSContext
itself was replaced with JSCompartment).
To prepare for this migration, rename all Runtime-related things to
Context.
Part of the SM52 migration, stage: SM45 compatible.

ScriptInterface is now a wrapper around a JSCompartment, and thus always
has a well-defined global.
The error reporter is moved to ScriptRuntime in anticipation of that
handling JSContext in a later diff.

- Makes it easier to change down the line (and change is coming)
- Allows making g_ScriptRuntime thread-local easily.
- Remove ParentRuntime, which is not used at the moment.

This was SVN commit r24171.
When serialising JS objects, we keep track of any encountered object,
and serialize it only once. Any further serialisation instead stores an
ID referring to the original object (essentially an opaque pointer).
The trouble of course is to have a unique, persistent identifier for
such an object.
svn uses an ObjectIDCache, essentially a "JS Object -> ID" map (which
internally is essentially a "JS heap pointer -> ID" map).
JS, since ES15, includes a "Symbol" primitive type, which is a unique,
immutable identifier. They are also not iterable by for..in or
GetOwnPropertyName or related.
This means they can be used to store the tag directly on the object
(since it's impossible overwrite a user property).
Thanks to this, we can forgo ObjectIDCache in the serializers, and since
following D2897 it becomes unused, we can delete it, along with the
Finalization code it used.

This also adds some validation to ensure the correct order of JS_Init,
JS_NewRuntime, JS_DestroyRuntime and JS_ShutDown calls.

This upgrade also introduces exact stack rooting (see to the wiki:
JSRootingGuide) and fixes problems with moving GC. This allows us to
enable generational garbage collection (GGC).
Measurements a few months ago have shown a performance improvement of a
non-visual replay of around 13.5%. This probably varies quite a bit, but
it should be somewhere between 5-20%. Memory usage has also been
improved. Check the forum thread for details.
Thanks to everyone from the team who helped with this directly or
indirectly (review, finding and fixing issues, the required C++11
upgrade, the new autobuilder etc.)! Also thanks to the SpiderMonkey
developers who helped on the #jsapi channel or elsewhere!

This was SVN commit r16214.
The runtime is becoming more and more important in the JSAPI. As a
result, we also have more functionality on the runtime level and having
the whole ScriptRuntime class hidden in ScriptInterface.cpp doesn't make
sense anymore. ScriptInterface.cpp also has become quite a large file
and pulling out the runtime part makes it a bit smaller.
