Bug 56940
"O(n^2) and O(n^3) growth too easy with JS string concatenation"
The solution: add mutable (growable or dependent, two subtypes) strings
to solve O(n^2) and O(n^3) growth rates
Bug 80981
"Need extended jump bytecode to avoid "script too large" errors, etc." We now ReportStatementTooLarge only if:
- a jump offset overflows 32 bits, signed;
- there are 2**32 or more span dependencies in a script;
- a backpatch chain link is more than (2**30 - 1) bytecodes long;
- a source note's distance from the last note, or from script main entry point, is > 0x7fffff bytes.
