[JSC] Default parameters should be retrieved by op_get_argument opcode instead of changing arity

[Yusuke Suzuki]

If you have a function like,

function func(a, b, options = {}) {
...
}

`func.length` is 2. But the number of parameters of this function is counted as 3.
So if you call it with the form `func(a, b)`, the arity check always fails.
But in the above case, not passing options is common.

Instead, we should retrieve the argument by using `op_get_argument`. It does not increase the arity.

Great find.

So our arity is just up to our first default-value parameter?

This will be true for every parameter?

numParameters() includes |this|?

Thanks!

Yes. And it is the same to the ECMAScript's function.length.

Yes. BytecodeGenerator::initializeDefaultParameterValuesAndSetupFunctionScopeStack does so.

>> +    if (codeBlock->numParameters() > argumentCountIncludingThis) {

Yes. CodeBlock's numParameter includes |this| since it is part of arg from the point of virtual register view.

I'll soon fix the failures in debug build.
