We told clients that further loading of variables can be done by
specifying a type cast using the address of a variable that we
returned.
This does not work for registerized variables (or, in general,
variables that have a complex location expression) because we don't
give them unique addresses and we throw away the compositeMemory object
we made to read them.
This commit changes proc so that:
1. variables with location expression divided in pieces do get a unique
memory address
2. the compositeMemory object is saved somewhere
3. when an integer is cast back into a pointer type we look through our
saved compositeMemory objects to see if there is one that covers the
specified address and use it.
The unique memory addresses we generate have the MSB set to 1, as
specified by the Intel 86x64 manual addresses in this form are reserved
for kernel memory (which we can not read anyway) so we are guaranteed
to never generate a fake memory address that overlaps a real memory
address of the application.
The unfortunate side effect of this is that it will break clients that
do not deserialize the address to a 64bit integer. This practice is
contrary to how we defined our types and contrary to the specification
of the JSON format, as of json.org, however it is also fairly common,
due to javascript itself having only 53bit integers.
We could come up with a new mechanism but then even more old clients
would have to be changed.
