This upgrade also introduces exact stack rooting (see to the wiki:
JSRootingGuide) and fixes problems with moving GC. This allows us to
enable generational garbage collection (GGC).
Measurements a few months ago have shown a performance improvement of a
non-visual replay of around 13.5%. This probably varies quite a bit, but
it should be somewhere between 5-20%. Memory usage has also been
improved. Check the forum thread for details.
Thanks to everyone from the team who helped with this directly or
indirectly (review, finding and fixing issues, the required C++11
upgrade, the new autobuilder etc.)! Also thanks to the SpiderMonkey
developers who helped on the #jsapi channel or elsewhere!

This was SVN commit r16214.
Everything is char* now, so we don't need to mess around with different
string types.
Done with:
ag -ls 'LOG(MESSAGE|MESSAGERENDER|WARNING|ERROR)' source | xargs perl
-pi -e'1 while
s/(LOG(MESSAGE|MESSAGERENDER|WARNING|ERROR).*)%[hl]s/$1%s/g'
This was SVN commit r16187.
Done with:
ag -ls 'LOG(MESSAGE|MESSAGERENDER|WARNING|ERROR)' source | xargs sed
-i 's/LOG\(MESSAGE\|MESSAGERENDER\|WARNING\|ERROR\)(L/LOG\1(/g'
This was SVN commit r16183.
Changes GetProperty, SetProperty and HasProperty and a few other
functions to take handles. The conversions to CScriptVal or
CScriptValRooted at some places should be removed in the future. I've
done that to avoid an even larger patch.

This commit contains all the required changes to our source files and
build scripts (hopefully).
A next commit will remove the old stuff of SpiderMonkey 1.8.5.
Spcial thanks to:
- H4writer who helped a lot mainly with the performance issues we
had/have, but also with other problems or questions.
- Leper for the review.
- Historic_bruno for implementing the build scripts on Mac OS X and
testing on the Mac.
- The people from the #jsapi channel and from
mozilla.dev.tech.js-engine who answered a lot of questions and helped
solving problems.

This was SVN commit r14877.
Each GUI Page gets its own compartment and all ScriptInterfaces in the
same thread should now use the same JS Runtime.
This is required for the SpiderMonkey upgrade.
Check the ticket for details.
Closes#2241
Refs #1886
Refs #1966
This was SVN commit r14496.
The Multiplayer lobby needs some changes to avoid compartment
mismatches. Instead of initializing it with a ScriptInterface and
storing script values at different locations, it takes a ScriptInterface
argument in the functions that really need to read or write some script
values and avoids storing values as script values with an associated
compartment where possible.
The scripting interface of the lobby is also adjusted to use
JSInterface_Lobby.h/cpp files as other components instead of adding all
functions to ScriptFunctions.cpp. This makes it a bit more clearly
arranged IMO.

This was SVN commit r14199.
Fix EncryptPassword being called with the wrong argument order, and
encrypting username instead of password. (This will break all existing
lobby accounts.)
Fix EncryptPassword not using all of salt_base.
This was SVN commit r14123.
