Backport 1ee712ab8687e5f4dec93d45da068d37d28feb8b from V8 upstream.
Original commit message:
Add SetAbortOnUncaughtExceptionCallback API
The --abort-on-uncaught-exception command line switch makes
Isolate::Throw abort if the error being thrown cannot be caught by a
try/catch block.
Embedders may want to use other mechanisms than try/catch blocks to
handle uncaught exceptions. For instance, Node.js has "domain" objects
that have error handlers that can handle uncaught exception like
following:
var d = domain.create();
d.on('error', function onError(err) {
console.log('Handling error');
});
d.run(function() {
throw new Error("boom");
});
These error handlers are called by isolates' message listeners.
If --abort-on-uncaught-exception is *not* used, the isolate's
message listener will be called, which will in turn call the domain's
error handler. The process will output 'Handling error' and will exit
successfully (not due to an uncaught exception). This is the behavior
that Node.js users expect.
However, if --abort-on-uncaught-exception is used and when throwing an
error within a domain that has an error handler, the process will abort
and the domain's error handler will not be called. This is not the
behavior that Node.js users expect.
Having a SetAbortOnUncaughtExceptionCallback API allows embedders to
determine when it's not appropriate to abort and instead handle the
exception via the isolate's message listener.
In the example above, Node.js would set a custom callback with
SetAbortOnUncaughtExceptionCallback that would be implemented as
following (the sample code has been simplified to remove what's not
relevant to this change):
bool ShouldAbortOnUncaughtException(Isolate* isolate) {
return !IsDomainActive();
}
Now when --abort-on-uncaught-exception is used, Isolate::Throw would
call that callback and determine that it should not abort if a domain
with an error handler is active. Instead, the isolate's message listener
would be called and the error would be handled by the domain's error
handler.
I believe this can also be useful for other embedders.

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.

api: introduce SealHandleScope
When debugging Handle leaks in io.js we found it very convenient to be
able to Seal some specific (root in our case) scope to prevent Handle
allocations in it, and easily find leakage.

Undo the ABI (but not API) change to NamedPropertyHandlerConfiguration.
This avoids a NODE_MODULE_VERSION bump and forcing everyone to recompile
their add-ons, at the cost of increasing the delta with upstream V8.
This commit effectively backs out 4.1.0.16, the release that introduced
the ABI change (and nothing else.)

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.
