or. You can't add 'add' and 'update' a property :)

Perhaps this should be a reference? We'll probably want to give out a reference
when passing a PropertyDescriptor along with an interceptor call in the
defineProperty-interceptor case.

[Franzi, 2016/08/18 09:56:24]

Done.

   // Sets an own property on this object bypassing interceptors and

If we can get by without has_get etc, I'd prefer that. It seems like the only
thing it's used for is that defineProperty with non-configurable properties
doesn't throw an exception if we're redefining accessors to the same value. If
you do have a set:undefined, that should be a conflict with a present setter,
whereas absent set doesn't conflict. I'm not sure this is a relevant
cornercase... Did I miss something?

[Franzi, 2016/08/18 09:56:24]

We need has_x() for all fields. We need to distinguish between undefined and not

present, when we re-define an existing property: 

var o = {};

Object.defineProperty(o, "a", {set: function() {}, configurable: true});
Object.defineProperty(o, "a", {configurable: false}); // OK
Object.defineProperty(o, "a", {}); // OK
Object.defineProperty(o, "a", {set: undefined}); // TypeError

o = {}
Object.defineProperty(o, "a", {value: 42});
Object.defineProperty(o, "a", {}); // OK
Object.defineProperty(o, "a", {value: undefined}); // TypeError

I'll add a test case to show the difference for undefined and !has_get().
