[cfe] Stop using DirectPropertyGet for enum encoding

DirectPropertyGet is a statically bound instance access used in the
VM mixin tranformation to encode fully resolved super access. The
access to `this.name` generated in `toString` of an enum is _not_
a statically bound instance access but just a regular instance access
whose runtime target happens to be known statically because the code
is generated. In JavaScript backend a statically bound instance access
requires a unique getter to avoid the dynamic lookup, and therefore,
though using DirectPropertyGet is an optimization
to the VM, it would be a regression to the JavaScript backends if
they didn't handle DirectPropertyGet as a PropertyGet.

This CL removes the misuse and thus enables JavaScript backends to
handle DirectPropertyGet with the intended semantics.

Dart

A client-optimized language for fast apps on any platform

Dart is:

  • Optimized for UI: Develop with a programming language specialized around the needs of user interface creation

  • Productive: Make changes iteratively: use hot reload to see the result instantly in your running app

  • Fast on all platforms: Compile to ARM & x64 machine code for mobile, desktop, and backend. Or compile to JavaScript for the web

Dart's flexible compiler technology lets you run Dart code in different ways, depending on your target platform and goals:

  • Dart Native: For programs targeting devices (mobile, desktop, server, and more), Dart Native includes both a Dart VM with JIT (just-in-time) compilation and an AOT (ahead-of-time) compiler for producing machine code.

  • Dart Web: For programs targeting the web, Dart Web includes both a development time compiler (dartdevc) and a production time compiler (dart2js).
