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

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.

Upcoming V8 changes will make it impossible to keep supporting the
smalloc module so deprecate it now and tell people to switch to
typed arrays.
The module is used in core in a few places so this commit makes the
public module private and replaces the public part with wrappers that
print deprecation notices.

Since setting object properties in C++ can be slow, pass
data to JS using preallocated smalloc buffer and create
object in JS instead.

Remove the 'gc' event from the v8 module and remove the supporting
infrastructure from src/. It gets the axe because:
1. There are currently no users. It was originally conceived as
an upstreamed subset of StrongLoop's strong-agent GC metrics,
but the strong-agent code base has evolved considerably since
that time and has no use anymore for what is in core.
2. The implementation is not quite sound. It calls into JS land
from inside the GC epilog and that is unsafe. We could fix
that by delaying the callback until a safe time but because
there are no users anyway, removing it is all around easier.

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.
