Skip the generic HasProperty and Get loop when indexOf operates on a
simple packed array. In that case every index below length is an own
data property, so a direct scan of the packed indexed property storage
gives the same strict-equality result without the per-element property
lookup
ceremony.
Only use the fast path when the current packed storage size still
matches the length captured before fromIndex coercion, since that
coercion can run user code and mutate the receiver. Add coverage for
length and storage mutations during fromIndex coercion.
indexed_take_first() already memmoves elements down for both Packed and
Holey storage, but the caller at ArrayPrototype::shift() only entered
the fast path for Packed arrays. Holey arrays fell through to the
spec-literal per-element loop (has_property / get / set /
delete_property_or_throw), which is substantially slower.
Add a separate Holey predicate with the additional safety checks the
spec semantics require: default_prototype_chain_intact() (so
HasProperty on a hole doesn't escape to a poisoned prototype) and
extensible() (so set() on a hole slot doesn't create a new own
property on a non-extensible object). The existing Packed predicate
is left unchanged -- packed arrays don't need these checks because
every index in [0, size) is already an own data property.

When the receiver is an Array with packed storage and an intact default
prototype chain, some methods can skip the generic property access
machinery and operate directly on the indexed element storage.
This patch adds fast paths for push(), pop(), concat(), slice() and
splice().
Replace the OwnPtr<IndexedPropertyStorage> indirection with inline
indexed element storage directly on Object. This eliminates virtual
dispatch and reduces indirection for indexed property access.
The new system uses three storage kinds tracked by IndexedStorageKind:
- Packed: Dense array, no holes. Elements stored in a malloced Value*
array with capacity header (same layout as named properties).
- Holey: Dense array with possible holes marked by empty sentinel.
Same physical layout as Packed.
- Dictionary: Sparse storage using GenericIndexedPropertyStorage,
type-punned into the m_indexed_elements pointer.
Transitions: None->Packed->Holey->Dictionary (mostly monotonic).
Dictionary mode triggers on non-default attributes or sparse arrays.
Object keeps the same 48-byte size since m_indexed_elements (8 bytes)
replaces IndexedProperties (8 bytes), and the storage kind + array
size fit in existing padding alongside m_flags.
The asm interpreter benefits from one fewer indirection: it now reads
the element pointer and array size directly from Object fields instead
of chasing through OwnPtr -> IndexedPropertyStorage -> Vector.
Removes: IndexedProperties, SimpleIndexedPropertyStorage,
IndexedPropertyStorage, IndexedPropertyIterator.
Keeps: GenericIndexedPropertyStorage (for Dictionary mode).
