- Communicate the current async stack length through a
typed array field rather than a native binding method
- Add a new fixed-size `async_ids_fast_stack` typed array
that contains the async ID stack up to a fixed limit.
This increases performance noticeably, since most of the time
the async ID stack will not be more than a handful of
levels deep.
- Make the JS `pushAsyncIds()` and `popAsyncIds()` functions
do the same thing as the native ones if the fast path
is applicable.
