This is the next step towards preventing compiler from directly peeking
into runtime and instead interact with runtime through a well defined
surface. The goal of the refactoring to locate all places where compiler
accesses some runtime information and partion those accesses into two
categories:
- creating objects in the host runtime (e.g. allocating strings, numbers, etc)
during compilation;
- accessing properties of the target runtime (e.g. offsets of fields) to
embed those into the generated code;
This change introduces dart::compiler and dart::compiler::target namespaces.
All code in the compiler will gradually be moved into dart::compiler namespace.
One of the motivations for this change is to be able to prevent access to
globally defined host constants like kWordSize by shadowing them in the
dart::compiler namespace.
The nested namespace dart::compiler::target hosts all information about
target runtime that compiler could access, e.g. compiler::target::kWordSize
defines word size of the target which will eventually be made different
from the host kWordSize (defined by dart::kWordSize).
The API for compiler to runtime interaction is placed into compiler_api.h.
Note that we still permit runtime to access compiler internals directly -
this is not going to be decoupled as part of this work.

- Introduce a slimmed down version of thread.h, which just depends on the
Zone and StackResource.
- Introduce a layering check that would prevent the coupling in the future.
This is the first step towards decoupling compiler from runtime.
There are multiple reasons to introduce the decoupling but the main
reason currently is to introduce a controlled surface through which
compiler reaches into runtime to catch any places where runtime word size
might influence the compiler and then enable building compiler that
targets 32-bit runtime but is embedded into a 64-bit runtime.
