Entry into JSC should CRASH() if the Heap is busy
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88355
Reviewed by Geoffrey Garen.
Interpreter::execute() returns jsNull() right now if we try to enter it while
the Heap is busy (e.g. with a collection), which is okay, but some code paths
that call Interpreter::execute() allocate objects before checking if the Heap
is busy. Attempting to execute JS code while the Heap is busy should not be
allowed and should be enforced by a release-mode CRASH() to prevent vague,
unhelpful backtraces later on if somebody makes a mistake. Normally, recursively
executing JS code is okay, e.g. for evals, but it should not occur during a
Heap allocation or collection because the Heap is not guaranteed to be in a
consistent state (especially during collections). We are protected from
executing JS on the same Heap concurrently on two separate threads because
they must each take a JSLock first. However, we are not protected from reentrant
execution of JS on the same thread because JSLock allows reentrancy. Therefore,
we should fail early if we detect an entrance into JS code while the Heap is busy.
* heap/Heap.cpp: Changed Heap::collect so that it sets the m_operationInProgress field
at the beginning of collection and then unsets it at the end so that it is set at all
times throughout the duration of a collection rather than sporadically during various
phases. There is no reason to unset during a collection because our collector does
not currently support running additional JS between the phases of a collection.

* interpreter/Interpreter.cpp:
(JSC::Interpreter::execute): Crash if the Heap is busy.
* runtime/Completion.cpp: Crash if the Heap is busy. We do it here before we call
Interpreter::execute() because we do some allocation prior to calling execute() which
could cause Heap corruption if, for example, that allocation caused a collection.

Add 'isProtocolHandlerRegistered' and 'unregisterProtocolHandler'.
