• Component: JavaScriptCore

Implement the IsInTailPosition static property (https://people.mozilla.org/~jorendorff/es6-draft.html#sec-isintailposition) to recognize calls in tail position.

Looks good to me. Here are a few missing cases:

LogicalANDExpression : LogicalANDExpression && BitwiseORExpression
Return HasProductionInTailPosition of BitwiseORExpression with argument nonterminal.
LogicalORExpression : LogicalORExpression || LogicalANDExpression
Return HasProductionInTailPosition of LogicalANDExpression with argument nonterminal.

This can also be written to be more explicitly not relying on default parameter:
generator.emitNode(dot, m_catchBlock, m_finallyBlock ? NoTailCalls : tailCallMode).

Good catch, adding those.

That is indeed better, changing this.

Add LogicalOpNode as a possible tail call, simplifies TryNode and ScopeNode.
