Upgrade the bundled V8 and update code in src/ and lib/ to the new API.
Notable backwards incompatible changes are the removal of the smalloc
module and dropped support for CESU-8 decoding. CESU-8 support can be
brought back if necessary by doing UTF-8 decoding ourselves.
This commit includes https://codereview.chromium.org/1192973004 to fix
a build error on python 2.6 systems. The original commit log follows:
Use optparse in js2c.py for python compatibility
Without this change, V8 won't build on RHEL/CentOS 6 because the
distro python is too old to know about the argparse module.

All compile time warnings about using deprecated APIs have been
suppressed by updating node's API. Though there are still many function
calls that can accept Isolate, and still need to be updated.
node_isolate had to be added as an extern variable in node.h and
node_object_wrap.h
Also a couple small fixes for Error handling.
Before v8 3.16.6 the error stack message was lazily written when it was
needed, which allowed you to change the message after instantiation.
Then the stack would be written with the new message the first time it
was accessed. Though that has changed. Now it creates the stack message
on instantiation. So setting a different message afterwards won't be
displayed.
This is not a complete fix for the problem. Getting error without any
message isn't very useful.
Not necessary, since we can handle the error properly on the first tick
now, even if there are event listeners, etc.
Additionally, this removes the unnecessary "_needTickCallback" from
startup, since Module.loadMain() will kick off a nextTick callback right
after it runs the main module.
Fix#4856
* Callbacks from spinner now calls its own function, separate from the
tickCallback logic
* MakeCallback will call a domain specific function if a domain is
detected
* _tickCallback assumes no domains, until nextTick receives a callback
with a domain. After that _tickCallback is overridden with the domain
specific implementation.
* _needTickCallback runs in startup() instead of nextTick (isaacs)
* Fix bug in _fatalException where exit would be called twice (isaacs)
* Process.domain has a default value of null
* Manually track nextTickQueue.length (will be useful later)
* Update tests to reflect internal api changes
