nboyd%atg.com d589083a1e Patches from Igor:
-----
The patch changes NativeCall to use IdScriptable. This is done mostly
for uniformity with other Native* classes plus it would allow to call
NativeCall.init directly and make NativeCall package private.
-----
The patch changes NativeScript to use id-based properties. Due to
inheritance from NativeFunction, id support requires to take into
account the fact that there are instance ids available from
BaseFunction. This is the reason to use "int prototypeIdShift" instead
of "boolean prototypeFlag" so it can store instance id offset.

The patch updates ScriptRuntime.callOrNewSpecial to check against
IdFunction and not FunctionObject for the Script exec method where it
also add finally clause to make sure that Context.exit would always be
called after Context.enter in the evalScript method.
-----
After converting NativeScript and NativeFunction to use IdScriptable,
they get scope argument directly as a parameter of execMethod call, so
cx.ctorScope is not used any more. The patch removes code to set/unset
cx.ctorScope.
-----
[This patch depends on conversion of NativeScript and NativeCall to use
IdScriptable and the patch to remove access of ctorScope from
FunctionObject]

The patch changes Context.initStandardObjects to call NativeCall.init
and NativeScript.init directly plus it unrolls the lazily initialization
loop. Due to rather poor support of an array initialization in Java byte
code, it actually decreases code size while eliminating are creation of
array object. The patch also removes ctorScope field as unused.
-----
The patch makes sure that ids used by NativeGlobal are visible only in
the object instance that initializes global scope and removes some junk
white space at line ends.
-----
To use the idswitch tool to generate map for strings that can not be
part of Id_ Java identifier like $*, I added code to the tool to look
for "// #string=...#" in the id definition line. The attached README
file also contains some documentation about the tool and should go to
idswitch directory.
