Expose the new serialization API that was added in V8 5.5 to userland.
The JS API is virtually a direct copy of what V8 provides on the
C++ level.
This is useful Node as a possible replacement for some internals
that currently use JSON, like IPC, but is likely to be useful to
general userland code as well.

src: Add does_zap_garbage, malloced_memory and
peak_malloced_memory to v8 HeapStatistics
Following https://github.com/nodejs/code-and-learn/issues/56 I
have exposed does_zap_garbage to HeapStatistics.
The other fields, malloced_memory and peak_malloced_memory don't
seem to be in the current version of v8 in master.

This changes the code blocks from 4-space indentation to ``` fences for
better syntax highlighting and future linting support. Minor On-the-fly
changes for typos and highlight breaking markdown have been made.
JSON-Style objects have been changed so their closing bracket is
on the same line as the opening one.
Known issues:
* Not every JSON / object notation has been improved. Should
make another run for this.
* Some example functions break hightlighting due to various
combinations of brackets. However changing them means leaving
the code style.

v8 introduced the new flag `total_available_size` in version 4.4
and upwards. This flag is now available on `v8.getHeapStatistics`
with the name `total_available_size`. It contains the total
available heap size of v8.
Introduced with commit: v8/v8-git-mirror@0a1352a7

Calling v8.setFlagsFromString with e.g a function as a flag argument
gave no exception or warning that the function call will fail.
There is now an exception if the function gets called with the wrong
flag type (string is required) or that a flag is expected.
Other APIs already provide exceptions if the argument has not the
expected type.

Previously the code that builds the Table of Contents threw
an exception because of jump from an H1 heading directly to an H3
heading.
By changing the H3 heading to an H2, 'make doc' works again. This is
also consistent with other docs like console.markdown which use
H2 for method call documentation.

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.
