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.

* @indutny's SealHandleScope patch (484bebc38319fc7c622478037922ad73b2edcbf9)
has been cherry picked onto the top of V8 to make it compile.
* There's some test breakage in contextify.
* This was merged at the request of the TC.

This commit applies some secondary changes in order to make `make test`
pass cleanly:
* disable broken postmortem debugging in common.gypi
* drop obsolete strict mode test in parallel/test-repl
* drop obsolete test parallel/test-v8-features

This commit upgrades V8 from 3.31.74.1 to 4.1.0.7. Despite the major
version bump, there are no API or ABI changes, it's a bug fix release
only.

V8 3.26.31 has received 14 patches since the upgrade to 3.26.33. Since
3.26.33 is technically a tag on the 3.27 branch, reverting back to
3.26.31 would remove now default functionality like WeakMaps. Because of
that the patches have simply been cherry-picked and squashed.
Here is a summary of all patches:
* Fix index register assignment in LoadFieldByIndex for arm, arm64, and
mips.
* Fix invalid attributes when generalizing because of incompatible map
change.
* Skip write barriers when updating the weak hash table.
* MIPS: Avoid HeapObject check in HStoreNamedField.
* Do GC if CodeRange fails to allocate a block.
* Array.concat: properly go to dictionary mode when required.
* Keep CodeRange::current_allocation_block_index_ in range.
* Grow heap slower if GC freed many global handles.
* Do not eliminate bounds checks for "<const> - x".
* Add missing map check to optimized f.apply(...).
* In GrowMode, force the value to the right representation to avoid
deopts between storing the length and storing the value.
* Reduce max executable size limit.
* Fix invalid condition in check elimination effects.
* Fix off-by-one error in Array.concat slow mode check.

This commit removes the simple/test-event-emitter-memory-leak test for
being unreliable with the new garbage collector: the memory pressure
exerted by the test case is too low for the garbage collector to kick
in. It can be made to work again by limiting the heap size with the
--max_old_space_size=x flag but that won't be very reliable across
platforms and architectures.
