Adds a new `makeTransferable()` utility that can construct a
`JSTransferable` object that does not directly extend the
`JSTransferable` JavaScript class.
Because JavaScript does not support multiple inheritance, it is
not possible (without help) to implement a class that extends
both `JSTransferable` and, for instance, `EventTarget` without
incurring a significant additional complexity and performance
cost by making all `EventTarget` instances extend `JSTransferable`...
That is, we *don't* want:
```js
class EventTarget extends JSTransferable { ... }
```
The `makeTransferable()` allows us to create objects that are
backed internally by `JSTransferable` without having to actually
extend it by leveraging the magic of `Reflect.construct()`.
```js
const {
JSTransferable,
kClone,
kDeserialize,
kConstructor,
makeTransferable,
} = require('internal/worker/js_transferable');
class E {
constructor(b) {
this.b = b;
}
}
class F extends E {
[kClone]() { /** ... **/ }
[kDeserialize]() { /** ... **/ }
static [kConstructor]() { return makeTransferable(F); }
}
const f = makeTransferable(F, 1);
f instanceof F; // true
f instanceof E; // true
f instanceof JSTransferable; // false
const mc = new MessageChannel();
mc.port1.onmessage = ({ data }) => {
data instanceof F; // true
data instanceof E; // true
data instanceof JSTransferable; // false
};
mc.port2.postMessage(f); // works!
```
The additional `internal/test/transfer.js` file is required for the
test because successfully deserializing transferable classes requires
that they be located in `lib/internal` for now.
