[vm] Fix deadlock in `AllocateSuspendState`

AllocateSuspendState was calling `Instance::SetField` but did not allow lazy deopt to occur. Possibility of lazy deopt from those
field stores is only theoretical, but it manifested as a
deadlock between background compiler and main thread: if main
thread calls `SetField` which tries to acquire write access to
the program lock, while background compiler has already
acquired write access to the program lock and is trying to
stop all mutators at a GC+Deopt safepoint then we will
deadlock as `AllocateSuspendState` does not allow Deopts
(safepoint level was lowered by 5bc107c29d297ac21fd4cb08192d2b3701ffb645).

We fix this problem by bypassing field guard and simply
writing affected fields directly in AllocateSuspendState.
We make sure to initialize guarded state for these fields
eagerly, so it never needs to change.

TEST=added assertion which validates that attempting to acquire program lock for write can only occur where GC+Deopt are permitted.

Dart

An approachable, portable, and productive language for high-quality apps on any platform

Dart is:

  • Approachable: Develop with a strongly typed programming language that is consistent, concise, and offers modern language features like null safety and patterns.

  • Portable: Compile to ARM, x64, or RISC-V machine code for mobile, desktop, and backend. Compile to JavaScript or WebAssembly for the web.

  • Productive: Make changes iteratively: use hot reload to see the result instantly in your running app. Diagnose app issues using DevTools.

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).
