PPC: [stubs] A new approach to TF stubs

Port 3e7e3ed726dd016dc6ae89803999a28fba2362c7

Original commit message:
    * Add a sibling interface to InterpreterAssembler called
      CodeStubAssembler which provides a wrapper around the
      RawMachineAssembler and is intented to make it easy to build
      efficient cross-platform code stubs. Much of the implementation
      of CodeStubAssembler is shamelessly stolen from the
      InterpreterAssembler, and the idea is to eventually merge the
      two interfaces somehow, probably moving the
      InterpreterAssembler interface over to use the
      CodeStubAssembler. Short-term, however, the two interfaces
      shall remain decoupled to increase our velocity developing the
      two systems in parallel.
    * Implement the StringLength stub in TurboFan with the new
      CodeStubAssembler. Replace and remove the old Hydrogen-stub
      version.
    * Remove a whole slew of machinery to support JavaScript-style
      code stub generation, since it ultimately proved unwieldy,
      brittle and baroque. This cleanup includes removing the shared
      code stub context, several example stubs and a tangle of build
      file changes.
