Use an array instead of an object to pass a parsed header chunk from c++
to javascript. This offers a 5-10% speedup on the http_simple benchmark,

The copyright and license notice is already in the LICENSE file. There
is no justifiable reason to also require that it be included in every
file, since the individual files are not individually distributed except
as part of the entire package.
Due to a recent V8 upgrade, more methods require Isolate as an argument.

The previous commits fixed oversights in destructors that should have
been marked virtual but weren't. This commit marks destructors from
derived classes with the override keyword.
Now that we are building with C++11 features enabled, replace use
of NULL with nullptr.
The benefit of using nullptr is that it can never be confused for
an integral type because it does not support implicit conversions
to integral types except boolean - unlike NULL, which is defined
as a literal `0`.
Attach the per-context execution environment directly to API functions.
Rationale:
* Gets node one step closer to multi-isolate readiness.
* Avoids multi-context confusion, e.g. when the caller and callee live
in different contexts.
* Avoids expensive calls to pthread_getspecific() on platforms where
V8 does not know how to use the thread-local storage directly.

API callback functions don't need to create a v8::HandleScope instance
because V8 already creates one in the JS->C++ adapter frame.

Weak handles put strain on the garbage collector and the parser handle
doesn't need to be weak in the first place. This change should improve
GC times on busy servers a little.

This prevents segfaults when a native method is reassigned to a
different object (which corrupts args.This()). When unwrapping,
clients should use args.Holder() instead of args.This().

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.
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.
Create a HandleScope before calling the Environment::GetCurrent() that
takes a v8::Isolate* as an argument because it creates a handle with
the call to v8::Isolate::CurrentContext().
CONTAINER_OF was introduced a while ago but was not used consistently
everywhere yet. This commit fixes that.
Why CONTAINER_OF instead of container_of? The former makes it crystal
clear that it's a macro, not a function.
The list of supported HTTP methods is available in JS land now so there
is no longer any need to pass a stringified version of the method to the
parser callback, it can look up the method name for itself.
Saves a call to v8::Eternal::Get() in the common case and a costly
v8::String::NewFromOneByte() in the uncommon case.
Drop the ObjectWrap dependency in favor of an internal WeakObject class.
Let's us stop worrying about API and ABI compatibility when making
changes to the way node.js deals with weakly persistent handles
internally.
This commit makes it possible to use multiple V8 execution contexts
within a single event loop. Put another way, handle and request wrap
objects now "remember" the context they belong to and switch back to
that context when the time comes to call into JS land.
This could have been done in a quick and hacky way by calling
v8::Object::GetCreationContext() on the wrap object right before
making a callback but that leaves a fairly wide margin for bugs.
Instead, we make the context explicit through a new Environment class
that encapsulates everything (or almost everything) that belongs to
the context. Variables that used to be a static or a global are now
members of the aforementioned class. An additional benefit is that
this approach should make it relatively straightforward to add full
isolate support in due course.
There is no JavaScript API yet but that will be added in the near
future.

* Change calls to String::New() and String::NewSymbol() to their
respective one-byte, two-byte and UTF-8 counterparts.
* Add a FIXED_ONE_BYTE_STRING macro that takes a string literal and
turns it into a v8::Local<v8::String>.
* Add helper functions that make v8::String::NewFromOneByte() easier to
work with. Said function expects a `const uint8_t*` but almost every
call site deals with `const char*` or `const unsigned char*`. Helps
us avoid doing reinterpret_casts all over the place.
* Code that handles file system paths keeps using UTF-8 for backwards
compatibility reasons. At least now the use of UTF-8 is explicit.
* Remove v8::String::NewSymbol() entirely. Almost all call sites were
effectively minor de-optimizations. If you create a string only once,
there is no point in making it a symbol. If you are create the same
string repeatedly, it should probably be cached in a persistent
handle.
This is a big commit that touches just about every file in the src/
directory. The V8 API has changed in significant ways. The most
important changes are:
* Binding functions take a const v8::FunctionCallbackInfo<T>& argument
rather than a const v8::Arguments& argument.
* Binding functions return void rather than v8::Handle<v8::Value>. The
return value is returned with the args.GetReturnValue().Set() family
of functions.
* v8::Persistent<T> no longer derives from v8::Handle<T> and no longer
allows you to directly dereference the object that the persistent
handle points to. This means that the common pattern of caching
oft-used JS values in a persistent handle no longer quite works,
you first need to reconstruct a v8::Local<T> from the persistent
handle with the Local<T>::New(isolate, persistent) factory method.
A handful of (internal) convenience classes and functions have been
added to make dealing with the new API a little easier.
The most visible one is node::Cached<T>, which wraps a v8::Persistent<T>
with some template sugar. It can hold arbitrary types but so far it's
exclusively used for v8::Strings (which was by far the most commonly
cached handle type.)
