[vm/concurrency] Make ICData use new type_feeback_mutex to prevent duplicate entries

Dart mutator threads cause update to runtime type feedback information
(e.g. ICData, MegamorphicCache). With multiple lightweight isolates
sharing JITed code, they will share the type feedback as well. That also
means multiple mutators can try to update type feedback at the same time
with the same (or different) feedback.

This means we can run into situations where we're trying to update type
feedback with information that's already there.
=> At a minimum we want to avoid adding duplicate entries to the ICData,
   so we have to guard against that.

Since the actual backing store to ICData is immutable, we have two
choices:

  * Let each thread read the current backing store, make a
    copy-on-write, add the new entry and update ICData with new backing
    store.
    => This can lead to an successful update being visible for a short
       period and then disappearing.

  * We can can ensure mutual exclusion when updating the backing store
    of ICData, thereby making read+grow+write appear atomic.
    => This requires taking a lock but ensures we never hit the same
       IC miss multiple times.

=> We take the latter approach for now.

TEST=CL is purely a refactoring.

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).
