- Add support for --build-snapshot-config which allows passing
snapshot configurations via a JSON configuration file.
- Add support for node::SnapshotConfig in the embedder API
The initial configurable options are:
- "builder" (SnapshotConfig::builder_script_path): path to the
builder script.
- "withoutCodeCache" (SnapshotFlags::kWithoutCodeCache): disable
code cache generation.

There were a few bugs in the original test that went unnoticed
because with the bug the test did not actually get run anymore.
This patch fixes the argument computation by accounting filtering
of the arguments, and uses spawnSyncAndExit{WithoutError} in
the test to enable better logging when the test fails.

- Run the embedder entry point directly through
runEmbedderEntryPoint(), instead of going through another
JS -> C++ trip through the function returned by
getEmbedderEntryFunction()
- For --build-snapshot, read the snapshot script code directly in C++
and pass it to SnapshotBuilder::Generate(), this makes the entry point
more explicit instead of hiding it in JS land, and also makes it
possible to invoke SnapshotBuilder::Generate() internally to create
a custom snapshot.
- Previously we used process.execPath for the embedder to create
__filename and __dirname in the snapshot builder script while using
process.argv[1] for --build-snapshot (where it's always set) which
results in inconsistencies. We now require the embedder to also set
args[1] when creating the Environment if they intend to run snapshot
scripts with a context that contains __filename and __dirname, which
would be derived from args[1]. If they prefer not to include
build-time paths in the snapshot, we now provide
node::GetAnonymousMainPath() as an alternative.

Since SEA is very similar in principle to embedding functionality,
it makes sense to share code paths where possible. This commit does
so and addresses a `TODO` while doing so.
It also adds a utility to directly run CJS code to the embedder
startup callback, which comes in handy for this purpose.
Finally, this commit is breaking because it aligns the behavior
of `require()`ing internal modules; previously, embedders could
use the `require` function that they received to do so.
(If this is not considered breaking because accessing internals
is not covered by the API, then this would need ABI compatibility
patches for becoming fully non-breaking.)

Add experimental support for loading snapshots in the embedder API
by adding a public opaque wrapper for our `SnapshotData` struct and
allowing embedders to pass it to the relevant setup functions.
Where applicable, use these helpers to deduplicate existing code
in Node.js’s startup path.
This has shown a 40 % startup performance increase for a real-world
application, even with the somewhat limited current support for
built-in modules.
The documentation includes a note about no guarantees for API or
ABI stability for this feature while it is experimental.
