Function.prototype polyfill

This is a polyfill for the three basic function methods apply, bind and call for ECMAScript 1st Edition (ECMA-262).

That's right, as compatible as it literally can be*. Why do you ask? Well to prove a point and to show just how much you can do in a dynamic language such as JavaScript/ECMAScript.

*This means Internet Explorer 3.0 and Netscape Navigator 2.0, yeah way back.

It avoids fancy things like Array.prototype.push and Array.prototype.join. For the latter it ships an O(n log n) non-recursive string concatenation implementation.
