Side note: We should get rid of these "Primitives" functions and just make them
external directly.
Using "Primitives" is a different way to make a function defined by the backend,
by having the backend introduce the Primitive class/object to the libraries
without exposing it to users. We shouldn't do the same thing in two ways.

I disagree, and this is not the forum for discussing the dart2js library design.
