[vm] Remove overlap between Function and FunctionType.

Previously there were several pieces of information shared between
both FunctionType and Function, mostly in the packed fields, but
named argument names were also kept in both places.

Now the FunctionType is the primary source for this information, with
the Function only keeping the names of positional arguments, which are
discarded in AOT snapshots.

This does mean extra work to access this information via the function
object, but for the most part, this information is only accessed in the
compiler or during dynamic lookups or checks in the runtime.

After adding the count of type parameters to the packed information
in FunctionType, the packed information has been split into two pieces:
one for parameter counts, another for type parameter counts. This
split does not increase the size of UntaggedFunctionType, as there
were 2 bytes available in the existing padding.

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).
