A recent web-compatability change to ECMA262 modified the semantics of
the accessor methods on the %RegExpPrototype% intrinsic--the "get"
accessors now include steps dedicated to the case where the "this" value
is the %RegExpPrototype% object itself.
Remove the tests that have been invalidated by this change, introduce
tests asserting the new behavior, and extend coverage for other possible
"this" values.
The specification contains an explicit informative NOTE explaining that
the 'm' flag does not effect the behavior of the '^' assertion. Add a
test to verify this.
ES2015 reads:
> RegExpUnicodeEscapeSequence :: u{ HexDigits }
>
> - It is a Syntax Error if the MV of HexDigits > 1114111.
Use the MV 0x110000 to assert the lower boundary of values which are
expected to produce the SyntaxError.
Extend test for HTML comments
The V8 engine incorrectly requires a leading newline character for
MultiLineComments which contain the optional trailing HTMLCloseComment
[1]. Extend the current tests to fail when such an invalid restriction
is in place.

A subtle aspect of the for-of iteration protocol concerns abrupt
completions that do *not* trigger iterator closing. Although this detail
is implicit in the current structure of the specification text, some
hosts may violate the protocol by closing the iterator because later
steps *do* specify that behavior.
The V8 engine is one such host--as of this writing, it incorrectly
closes the iterator when accessing the `value` property of the iterator
result produces an abrupt completion.
Add tests verifying that the iterator protocol is not violated in this
way for abrupt completions during the semantics of for-of evaluation.
ConversionError and RegExpError tests are methods that existed on
something that preceeded a IE9 Standard. They do not exist in the
specs, at least since ES5.
It's not test262 responsibility to maintain these tests as these
features can be freely implemented by any runtime.
These tests have been re-factored to expand coverage of the "default
parameter" language feature and to more closely adhere to this project's
preferred file organization.
Ensure that when HasBinding of an Object environment record returns an
abrupt completion, that same completion is returned to the runtime.
Update the meta-data of related tests for consistency with this new
test.
According to ES2015, functions created using the FunctionDeclaration
syntax may define "own" properties named "caller" and "arguments" as
long as this is done using the AddRestrictedFunctionProperties abstract
operation.
Remove the assertions that prohibit this extension.
The latest revision of ECMA262 makes special provisions for classes
which extend the `null` value [1]. Update the relevant tests
accordingly.
