Both duk_hthread and duk_context typedefs resolve to struct duk_hthread
internally. In external API duk_context resolves to struct duk_hthread
which is intentionally left undefined as the struct itself is not
dereferenced. Change internal code to use duk_hthread exclusively which
removes unnecessary and awkward thr <-> ctx casts from internals.
The basic guidelines are:
* Public API uses duk_context in prototype declarations. The intent is to
hide the internal type, and there's already a wide dependency on the
type name.
* All internal code, both declarations and definitions, use duk_hthread
exclusively. This is done even for API functions, i.e. an API function
declared as "void duk_foo(duk_context *ctx);" is then defined as
"void duk_foo(duk_hthread *thr);".
These can be used whenever we're 100% certain that the value stack index
exists and the type matches expected type. When these are true, a
duk_hstring, duk_hbuffer, or duk_hobject pointer fetch can be inlined to
small code.
* Use shared error macros and shared error handler to reduce the size of call
sites of common errors.
* Make zero argument DUK_ERROR() calls non-vararg calls to reduce call site
footprint. Non-vararg calls have smaller call sites and because there are
a lot of call sites, this turns out to be significant.
* Remove variadic macros from internal DUK_ERROR() macro set and add separate
macros for argument counts 0 to 4; this is more portable and requires less
conditional code, and works well when a non-vararg call is used for most
error call sites.
* Rework macro / function argument order for the error path, try to keep 'thr'
in the same argument slot to avoid unnecessary register moves.
* Pack linenumber and error code into a single 32-bit argument when possible,
removes one more constant load from the call site.
* Convert some internal errors to RangeErrors when the underlying cause is an
implementation limit (such as a compiler temp limit) rather than an actual
unexpected internal situation.
* Simplify and share a few error messages to reduce string count.
