src,tools: speed up startup by 2.5%
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history 
Use zero-copy external string resources for storing the built-in JS
source code.  Saves a few hundred kilobyte of memory and consistently
speeds up `benchmark/misc/startup.js` by 2.5%.

Everything old is new again!  Commit 74954ce ("Add string class that
uses ExternalAsciiStringResource.") from 2011 did the same thing but
I removed that in 2013 in commit 34b0a36 ("src: don't use NewExternal()
with unaligned strings") because of a limitation in the V8 API.

V8 no longer requires that strings are aligned if they are one-byte
strings so it should be safe to re-enable external strings again.
