This simplifies the longestSeqContainedIn() logic by checking for
the first identical occurance of at least three frames instead of
the longest one.
It also removes an unused argument.

And for the same reason, returning j might not be used in this specific setup, but it’s part of having this be a more generic function.

pos translates to the former j but I recommend to change the signature when necessary and not to keep code in here that is currently unused.

Can you do a CITGM run?

// Returns the length and line number of the first sequence of `a` that fully
// appears in `b` with a length of at least 4.
function identicalSequenceRange(a, b) {
for (var i = 0; i < a.length - 3; i++) {

I would cache a.length - 3 in a variable.

I expect the value to be constant fold (but I did not check).

a could be quite big, and it used to be slightly faster to cache the value if it's computed.

a should normally be small (we currently only use this for stack frames) and this implementation should also be faster than the one before. If it's about performance, I could save a couple comparisons by using a simple for loop instead of indexOf (currently I check until the last entry but the last three entries are not interesting).

@bmeurer do values like these get constant fold?

@mcollina nothing showed up in CITGM (most failures are related due to some windows issues and others to removed V8 functions, the rest is also known).

I know this is nothing important but it would still be great to get some reviews here. This PR is open since 14 days and there was neither a +1, nor a -1.

Not strictly required, but it would be great to get another review on this one. @addaleax @bnoordhuis @apapirovski @mscdex (There's not @nodejs/events team, so that list is assembled from very imperfect and superficial use of git shortlog.)
