As discussed on IRC, this would speed up all self-hosted array extras that invoke a callback for each element in an array but skip holes. For Array#indexOf and #lastIndexOf, we use the IsPackedArray intrinsic to check if we can omit the `if (k in O)` check, but for methods that invoke a callback that doesn't work as the callback might delete items in the array. I'm not sure how common it is in user code to have this type of check, so a self-hosting-only solution might be ok. If it doesn't make too much of a difference implementation-wise, a general solution would be preferable, of course.
Taking. Had a look this afternoon while other things where compiling. 1) Current state: This gets translated into a MInArray, which is actually quite fast. In most cases that only emits branch in the loop itself. The retrieval of other things (initlength/elements) are hoisted above the loop. 2) Possible improvement: We can do something similar like symbolic range analysis with MBoundsCheck, but on MInArray. That should make it possible to see MInArray is always true (if the function is inlined). Removing that branch entirely.
