Aliaksandr Kalenik 4d5823a5bc LibWeb+LibJS: Skip function environment allocation if possible ...

If a function has the following properties:
- uses only local variables and registers
- does not use `this`
- does not use `new.target`
- does not use `super`
- does not use direct eval() calls

then it is possible to entirely skip function environment allocation
because it will never be used

This change adds gathering of information whether a function needs to
access `this` from environment and updates `prepare_for_ordinary_call()`
to skip allocation when possible.

For now, this optimisation is too aggressively blocked; e.g. if `this`
is used in a function scope, then all functions in outer scopes have to
allocate an environment. It could be improved in the future, although
this implementation already allows skipping >80% of environment
allocations on Discord, GitHub and Twitter.
