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.

gdbinit provided by V8 can be very useful for low-level debugging of
crashes in node and in binary addons. Most useful commands at 'jst'
for JS stack traces and 'job' for printing a heap object.
This patch installs the file at $PREFIX/share/doc/node/gdbinit.

If `len(args)` is less than two, then
`install_path = dst_dir + node_prefix + '/'` would throw a `NameError`,
because `dst_dir` will not be defined yet. So we are assigning `''` as
the default value.

This action is to encourage packagers to not build against a
shared V8 library since even minor bumps of V8 can create issues.

This part is broken for a very long time. We noticed the problem while
using jxcore native interface with embedded openssl. I've also sent a
pull request to node.js repo. The problem may affect a native addon
using builtin openssl. `opensslconf.h` is overwritten with
`deps/openssl/conf/opensslconf.h`

Install a symlink for compatibility with scripts that expect a binary

platforms because symlinks on Windows require elevated privileges.

This change introduces support for the common PREFIX variable in the
Makefile and install.py, instead of having /usr/local hardcoded. This
makes it much easier to install node to custom locations e.g. in a
user's home directory.
The PREFIX variable defaults to /usr/local.
Looks like a merge conflict in 77ed12f left in the old, unconditional
install rule. Remove it, the new and improved rule is a few lines down.
Fixes#5044.
Make tools/install.py work with python 2.5
2.5 is still fairly widespread and does not include a json lib as
standard. Most python folk will have simplejson if they are in that
boat.
In general it seems a bit tricky to solve this perfectly...
This "portable" mode rewrites the npm shebang to use the "node" executable
in the same directory relative to the "npm" script. This makes the "npm"
script "just work" even when "node" is not in the user's $PATH.
This mode is necessary for the precompiled binary packages that may potentially
be extracted to anywhere. The regular shebang-rewriting logic would normally
set the npm script's shebang to "/bin/node" which will not be present on anyone's
machine. In the end, we want the precompiled packages to be as user-friendly as
possible.
The installer does what amounts to `cp -p`. If the node binary is in use at
the time of the copy, it'd fail with a ETXTBSY error. That's why it's unlinked
first now.
* honor the --without-waf and --without-npm configure switches
* a small logic bug made the installer script install to $PWD instead of
/usr/local if --prefix= was not passed to configure
The old installer was a JS script, which didn't work if node had been
cross-compiled for another architecture. Replace it with a python script.
Fixes#3807.
