[vm/compiler] Change MemoryCopy to also take untagged addresses.

This CL adds the ability to pass the payload address of the source
and destination directly to the MemoryCopy instruction as an untagged
value.

The new translation of the _TypedListBase._memMoveN methods use the new
MemoryCopy constructor, retrieving the untagged value of the data field
of both the source and destination. This way, if inlining exposes the
allocation of the object from which the data field is being retrieved,
then allocation sinking can remove the intermediate allocation if there
are no escaping uses of the object.

Since Pointer.asTypedList allocates such ExternalTypedData objects,
this CL makes that method inlined if at all possible, which removes
the intermediate allocation if the only use of the TypedData object
is to call setRange for memory copying purposes.

This CL also separates unboxed native slots into two groups: those
that contain untagged addresses and those that do not. The former
group now have the kUntagged representation, which mimics the old
use of LoadUntagged for the PointerBase data field and also ensures
that any arithmetic operations on untagged addresses must first be
explicitly converted to an unboxed integer and then explicitly converted
back to untagged before being stored in a slot that contains untagged
addresses.

When a unboxed native slot that contains untagged addresses is defined,
the definition also includes a boolean which represents whether
addresses that may be moved by the GC can be stored in this slot or not.
The redundancy eliminator uses this to decide whether it is safe to
eliminate a duplicate load, replace a load with the value originally
stored in the slot, or lift a load out of a loop.

In particular, the PointerBase data field may contain GC-moveable
addresses, but only for internal TypedData objects and views, not
for external TypedData objects or Pointers. To allow load optimizations
involving the latter, the LoadField and StoreField instructions now
take boolean flags for whether loads or stores from the slot are
guaranteed to not be GC-moveable, to override the information from
the slot argument.

Notable benchmark changes on x64 (similar for other archs unless noted):

JIT:
* FfiMemory.PointerPointer: 250.7%
* FfiStructCopy.Copy1Bytes: -26.73% (only x64)
* FfiStructCopy.Copy32Bytes: -25.18% (only x64)
* MemoryCopy.64.setRange.Pointer.Uint8: 19.36%
* MemoryCopy.64.setRange.Pointer.Double: 18.96%
* MemoryCopy.8.setRange.Pointer.Double: 17.59%
* MemoryCopy.8.setRange.Pointer.Uint8: 19.46%

AOT:
* FfiMemory.PointerPointer: 323.5%
* FfiStruct.FieldLoadStore: 483.3%
* FileIO_readwrite_64kb: 15.39%
* FileIO_readwrite_512kb (Intel Xeon): 46.22%
* MemoryCopy.512.setRange.Pointer.Uint8: 35.20%
* MemoryCopy.64.setRange.Pointer.Uint8: 55.40%
* MemoryCopy.512.setRange.Pointer.Double: 29.45%
* MemoryCopy.64.setRange.Pointer.Double: 60.37%
* MemoryCopy.8.setRange.Pointer.Double: 59.54%
* MemoryCopy.8.setRange.Pointer.Uint8: 55.40%
* FfiStructCopy.Copy32Bytes: 398.3%
* FfiStructCopy.Copy1Bytes: 1233%

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).
