[cleanup] Remove the `Map::IsDictionaryMap()` method.

There's a `Map::IsDictionaryMap()` method in addition to the
`Map::is_dictionary_map()`, which apparently do very different things:
The former checks whether the instance type of the Map is in a certain
range (FIRST_DICTIONARY_TYPE to LAST_DICTIONARY_TYPE), while the latter
checks the `is_dictionary_map` bit (which means that the backing store
for the properties of a JSObject is in slow mode). To make matters worse
there's also `CodeStubAssembler::IsDictionaryMap()`, which does the bit
check similar to `Map::is_dictionary_map()`. And to make matters even
worse the FIRST_DICTIONARY_TYPE to LAST_DICTIONARY_TYPE range also
contains instance types for classes that aren't subclass of `Dictionary`
(despite a comment stating the opposite).

So in conclusion it's best to remove the confusing
`Map::IsDictionaryMap()` method, which is anyways wrong, and just test
explicitly for `NameDictionary`, `NumberDictionary` or
`GlobalDictionary` in the appropriate places.

Getting the Code

Checkout depot tools, and run

    fetch v8

This will checkout V8 into the directory v8 and fetch all of its dependencies. To stay up to date, run

    git pull origin
    gclient sync

For fetching all branches, add the following into your remote configuration in .git/config:

    fetch = +refs/branch-heads/*:refs/remotes/branch-heads/*
