    Add new JIT tier between the interpreter and the LLVM JIT tiers. · fc366564

    This JIT is tightly coupled to the ASTInterpreter, at every CFGBlock* entry/exit
    on can switch between interpreting and directly executing the generated code without having
    to do any translations.
    Generating the code is pretty fast compared to the LLVM tier but the generated code is not as fast
    as code generated by the higher LLVM tiers.
    But because the JITed can use runtime ICs, avoids a lot of interpretation overhead and
    stores CFGBlock locals sysbols inside register/stack slots, it's much faster than the interpreter.
