AdaptiveInferredPropertyValueWatchpoint can trigger a GC that frees its CodeBlock and thus itself
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154146

Reviewed by Filip Pizlo.

Consider the following: there is some CodeBlock, C, that is watching some object, O, with a
structure, S, for replacements. Also, suppose that C has no references anymore and is due to
be GCed. Now, when some new property is added to O, S will create a new structure S' and
fire its transition watchpoints. Since C is watching S for replacements it will attempt to
have its AdaptiveInferredPropertyValueWatchpoint relocate itself to S'. To do so, it needs
it allocate RareData on S'. This allocation may cause a GC, which frees C while still
executing its watchpoint handler. The solution to this is to defer GC while running
AdaptiveInferredPropertyValueWatchpointBase handlers.
