Remove compiler switches from $(TOPLEVEL)/deps/v8/build/common.gypi,
we set them globally in $(TOPLEVEL)/common.gypi.
Commit 7b4d95a introduced the switches again, resulting in V8 getting
built without any optimizations.
This commit is essentially a rehash of commit 4b8629d.

* fix gyp build
* don't require libexecinfo, it's not there
* libpthread doesn't implement sem_timedwait(), fall back to sem_wait()

Remove compiler switches from $(TOPLEVEL)/deps/v8/build/common.gypi, we set
them globally in $(TOPLEVEL)/common.gypi.
Commit 29d12c73 accidentally reintroduced the switches again. In particular,
the 'cflags!': ['-O2','-Os'] section forced building V8 without any
optimizations, resulting in a steep (~66%) performance drop on some benchmarks.
Fixes#4191.
`timezone` variable contains the difference, in seconds, between UTC and
local standard time (see `man 3 localtime` on Solaris).
Call to `tzset` is required to apply contents of `TZ` variable to
`timezone` variable.

Patch from Maciej Małecki <me@mmalecki.com>.
This is a back-port of upstream commit r12802.
* valgrind complained too much about memory leaks from the V8 heap to be
useful, run it with --leak-check=no. Not ideal, needs to be revisited,
preferably with a suppression file.
* tools/run-valgrind.py didn't deal with tests that logged to stderr, rewrite
the heuristic and make valgrind write to a socket instead of stderr.
Fixes#3869.
Compile at -O2 and disable optimizations that trigger gcc bugs.
Some people still reported mksnapshot crashes after commit b40f813 ("build: fix
spurious mksnapshot crashes for good" - so much for that).
Average performance of the -O2 binary is on par with the -O3 binary. Variance
on the http_simple bytes/8 benchmark appears to be slightly greater but small
enough that the possibly of it being noise cannot be excluded.
The new binary very slightly but consistently outperforms the -O3 binary (by
about 0.5%) on the mostly CPU-bound bytes/102400 benchmark. That could be an
artifact of the system I benchmarked it on, a Core 2 Duo with a puny 32 kB of
L1 instruction cache. The smaller binary seems to play nicer with the cache.
