This commit adds the ability to enable userspace tracing with lttng
in io.js. It adds tracepoints for all the equivalent dtrace and ETW
tracepoints. To use these tracepoints enable --with-lttng on linux.

Snapshots speed up start-up by a few milliseconds but are potentially
dangerous because of the fixed hash seed that is used for strings and
dictionaries, making collision denial-of-service attacks possible.
Release builds on iojs.org have snapshots disabled but source builds
did not, until now.
The risk for individual source builds is low; the binary gets a random
32 bits hash seed that should be hard to guess by an external attacker.
It's when binaries are distributed by, for example, a distro vendor
that the fixed hash seed becomes a vulnerability, because then it's
possible to target a large group of people at once.
People that really need the faster start-up time can use the new
--with-snapshot configure flag.

The PLATFORM preprocessor symbol is defined in node.gyp, and on Windows
it's set to "win". This conflicts with a built-in preprocessor symbol
with a different value ("win32"), which makes the linker(!) complain.
Resolve this by renaming these symbols to NODE_ARCH and NODE_PLATFORM.

I introduced this module over a year ago in a pull request as the v8
module but it was quickly subsumed by the tracing module.
The tracing module was recently removed again and that is why this
commit introduces the v8 module again, including the new features it
picked up commits d23ac0e and f8076c4.

Dtrace probes were removed from libuv recently, but their usage by node
was not completely removed, causing build breaks on SmartOS.
Even though the build is working on other platforms, these probes are
not fired by libuv anymore, so there's no point in using them on these
platforms too.

The "dtrace" script version include in systemtap-sdt-devel-2.6-3
(part of Fedora 21) no longer ignores unknown command line
arguments, but will instead error out and refuse to run.
This patch adds a separate condition to node's gyp input so
that on Linux it will run dtrace without the -xnolibs
argument that trips it up on systemtap-std-devel-2.6-3.

There is not much point in keeping it a separate project because it
doesn't build standalone, plus it makes applying changes to core more
difficult because of the implicit dependency on header files in src/.
The two main goals of this change are:
- To make it easier to build the Intl option using ICU (particularly,
using a newer ICU than v8/Chromium's version)
- To enable a much smaller ICU build with only English support The goal
here is to get node.js binaries built this way by default so that the
Intl API can be used. Additional data can be added at execution time
(see Readme and wiki)
More details are at https://github.com/joyent/node/pull/7719
In particular, this change adds the "--with-intl=" configure option to
provide more ways of building "Intl":
- "full-icu" picks up an ICU from deps/icu
- "small-icu" is similar, but builds only English
- "system-icu" uses pkg-config to find an installed ICU
- "none" does nothing (no Intl)
For Windows builds, the "full-icu" or "small-icu" options are added to
vcbuild.bat.
Note that the existing "--with-icu-path" option is not removed from
configure, but may not be used alongside the new option.
Wiki changes have already been made on
https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Installation
and a new page created at
https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Intl
(marked as provisional until this change lands.)
Summary of changes:
* README.md : doc updates
* .gitignore : added "deps/icu" as this is the location where ICU is
unpacked to.
* Makefile : added the tools/icu/* files to cpplint, but excluded a
problematic file.
* configure : added the "--with-intl" option mentioned above.
Calculate at config time the list of ICU source files to use and data
packaging options.
* node.gyp : add the new files src/node_i18n.cc/.h as well as ICU
linkage.
* src/node.cc : add call into
node::i18n::InitializeICUDirectory(icu_data_dir) as well as new
--icu-data-dir option and NODE_ICU_DATA env variable to configure ICU
data loading. This loading is only relevant in the "small"
configuration.
* src/node_i18n.cc : new source file for the above Initialize..
function, to setup ICU as needed.
* tools/icu : new directory with some tools needed for this build.
* tools/icu/icu-generic.gyp : new .gyp file that builds ICU in some new
ways, both on unix/mac and windows.
* tools/icu/icu-system.gyp : new .gyp file to build node against a
pkg-config detected ICU.
* tools/icu/icu_small.json : new config file for the "English-only" small
build.
* tools/icu/icutrim.py : new tool for trimming down ICU data. Reads the
above .json file.
* tools/icu/iculslocs.cc : new tool for repairing ICU data manifests
after trim operation.
* tools/icu/no-op.cc : dummy file to force .gyp into using a C++ linker.
* vcbuild.bat : added small-icu and full-icu options, to call into
configure.
* Fixed toolset dependencies, see
https://github.com/joyent/node/pull/7719#issuecomment-54641687
Note that because of a bug in gyp {CC,CXX}_host must also be set.
Otherwise gcc/g++ will be used by default for part of the build.

Turn off -Werror when building V8, it hits -Werror=unused-local-typedefs
with g++ 4.8. The warning itself is harmless so don't abort the build.
This was originally implemented in commit d2ab314e back in 2011 but the
build process has gone through a few iterations since then, that change
no longer works.
Add a new 'tracing' module with a v8 property that lets the user
register listeners for gc events. The listeners are invoked after
every garbage collection cycle with 'before' and 'after' statistics.
Useful for monitoring tools that want to keep track of memory usage.
Built-in modules should be automatically registered, replacing the
static module list. Add-on modules should also be automatically
registered via DSO constructors. This improves flexibility in adding
built-in modules and is also a prerequisite to pure-C addon modules.
Forcibly disable -Werror, the old { 'werror': '' } hack in node.gyp
no longer works with newer versions of V8.
We support a wide range of compilers, it's simply not feasible to
squelch all warnings, never mind that the libraries in deps/ are
not under our control.
Fixes#6817.
Previously we were building the symbols, but the linker was garbage
collecting the symbols because they weren't used. Inform the linker
that we want to keep all symbols from v8 around.
BaseObject is a class that just handles the Persistent handle attached
to the class instance.
This also removed WeakObject. Reordering the inheritance chain helps
prevent unneeded calls on instances that don't call MakeCallback.
AsyncListener is a JS API that works in tandem with the AsyncWrap class
to allow the user to be alerted to key events in the life cycle of an
asynchronous event. The AsyncWrap class has its own MakeCallback
implementation that core will be migrated to use, and uses state sharing
techniques to allow quicker communication between JS and C++ whether the
async event callbacks need to be called.
