[[SetPrototypeOf]] should be a fully virtual method in ClassInfo::methodTable

[Saam Barati]

We can probably make this fast just by using the setPrototypeOfInline paradigm
where we will often be able to inline this call as JSObject::setPrototypeWithCycleCheck.

This is needed for Proxy

When referring to the object constructor, the spec says "setPrototypeOf" because the object constructor sets the prototype *of* another object.

But when we refer to an object setting its own prototype, that should be called "setPrototype". This applies to lots of places in this patch.

Why do we have this inline variant? I think you should remove it.
