asiva 8b2b6b2440 Reland ""[SDK/VM] - Rename dart_precompiled_runtime to dartaotruntime, ensures we have a uniform name for the executable between the build directories and the SDK directory""

This reverts commit 74c5aa3a7a.

Reason for revert: Fix golem breakage by not changing the script dart_precompiled_runtime2

TEST=ci

AOT code size analysis

The Dart VM's AOT compiler has support for emitting binary size information for all the code that gets generated. This information can then be visualized.

Telling the AOT compiler to generate binary size information

Our AOT compiler accepts an extra --print-instructions-sizes-to=sizes.json flag. If supplied the AOT compiler will emit binary size information for all generated functions to sizes.json.

This flag can be passed to gen_snapshot directly, or to the various wrapper scripts (e.g. pkg/vm/tool/precompiler2):

% tools/build.py -mrelease -ax64 runtime runtime_precompiled
% pkg/vm/tool/precompiler2 --print-instructions-sizes-to=hello_sizes.json hello.dart hello.dart.aot

In Flutter, pass this argument to flutter build:

% flutter build aot --release --extra-gen-snapshot-options=--print-instructions-sizes-to=hello_sizes.json

Visualizing the information from the binary size json file

To visualize the information emitted by the AOT compiler one can use our binary size analysis tool:

% dart pkg/vm/bin/snapshot_analysis.dart treemap hello_sizes.json hello_sizes
Generated file:///.../sdk/hello_sizes/index.html
% chrome hello_sizes/index.html

Comparing the sizes of two AOT builds

To visualize the differences between two AOT builds one can use our binary size comparison tool:

% dart pkg/vm/bin/snapshot_analysis.dart compare app-sizes--before.json app-sizes--after.json

+---------+--------+--------------+
| Library | Method | Diff (Bytes) |
+---------+--------+--------------+
...

Object-level data

gen_snapshot also accepts an extra --write-v8-snapshot-profile-to=hello.heapsnapshot flag. If supplied the AOT compiler will emit snapshot size information for all objects in the snapshot to hello.heapsnapshot in V8 snapshot format.
