[liveedit] Use start position in function lookup

Instead of looking up functions by their function literal id (which can
be slow now that function id involves a linear search for compiled
functions), we key the lookup by the function's start position.

This means that the script+literal id swapping to find equivalent
unchanged functions during constant pool patching no longer works -- we
could replace it by fixing up the start position of the redundant new
function, but instead we just build up a side-table mapping (new) start
positions to function literal ids, and use that function literal id to
find the old function in the script's SFI list.

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/*
    fetch = +refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*
