Drop the homegrown thread pool that was introduced in commit 50839a0
("v8_platform: provide default v8::Platform impl") and use one from
V8's libplatform library. Performance is comparable and it removes
a few hundred lines of code.
The calls to v8::platform::PumpMessageLoop() are currently no-ops
because V8 does not (yet?) use v8::Platform::CallOnForegroundThread().
Packagers that link against a shared libv8 now also need to make
libv8_platform available.

It's possible for an accessor or named interceptor to get called with
a different execution context than the one it lives in, see the test
case for an example using the debug API.
This commit fortifies against that by passing the environment as a
data property instead of looking it up through the current context.

This patch adds a command line option (-r/--require) that allows one
to provide modules on the command line that will be 'required' during
node startup. This can be useful for debugging, tracing, memory leak
analysis etc. to be preloaded without explicit changes to the user
script. The option can be repeated to preload multiple modules.

This feature has no tests and has been broken for ages, see for example
https://github.com/iojs/io.js/pull/1160. Don't bother fixing it, it's
pretty much broken by design and there can't be too many users because
it's almost undocumented. A quick Google search suggests that it causes
more grief than joy to the few that do use it. Remove it.

With --max_old_space_size=12345 it's possible to create a JS heap that
is larger than what fits in an unsigned int so use Number::New() rather
than Integer::NewFromUnsigned().
Performance-wise, it doesn't matter much. If V8 can fit the double in
a SMI, it will.

-r/--require can be used to preload modules on node startup. The option
takes a single module name. The option can be repeated as necessary to
preload multiple modules.
This patch allows 'vendors' (such a cloud host) to inject functionality
that gets executed at application startup without requiring an explicit
require from the user's application. This can be useful to load vendor
specific application monitoring APIs transparently.

If run with --abort-on-uncaught-exception, V8 will abort the process
whenever it does not see a JS-installed CatchClause in the stack. C++
TryCatch clauses are ignored. Domains work by setting a FatalException
handler which is ignored when running in abort mode.
This patch modifies MakeCallback to call its target function through a
JS function that installs a CatchClause and manually calls _fatalException
on error, if the process is both using domains and is in abort mode.

Reduce the overhead of the CPU profiler by suppressing SIGPROF signals
when sleeping / polling for events. Avoids unnecessary wakeups when the
CPU profiler is active.
The benefits are quite substantial on systems where it is expensive to
query the system time (most virtualized environments). Before, it was
common to see over 20% of wall clock time being spent on clock_gettime()
system calls.

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

as part of the entire package.
The PLATFORM preprocessor symbol is defined in node.gyp, and on Windows
it's set to "win". This conflicts with a built-in preprocessor symbol
with a different value ("win32"), which makes the linker(!) complain.
Resolve this by renaming these symbols to NODE_ARCH and NODE_PLATFORM.

Call a user-defined callback at specific points in the lifetime of an
asynchronous event. Which are on instantiation, just before/after the
callback has been run.
**If any of these callbacks throws an exception, there is no forgiveness
or recovery. A message will be displayed and a core file dumped.**
Currently these only tie into AsyncWrap, meaning no call to a hook
callback will be made for timers or process.nextTick() events. Though
those will be added in a future commit.
Here are a few notes on how to make the hooks work:
- The "this" of all event hook callbacks is the request object.
- The zero field (kCallInitHook) of the flags object passed to
setupHooks() must be set != 0 before the init callback will be called.
- kCallInitHook only affects the calling of the init callback. If the
request object has been run through the create callback it will always
run the before/after callbacks. Regardless of kCallInitHook.
- In the init callback the property "_asyncQueue" must be attached to
the request object. e.g.
function initHook() {
this._asyncQueue = {};
}
- DO NOT inspect the properties of the object in the init callback.
Since the object is in the middle of being instantiated there are some
cases when a getter is not complete, and doing so will cause Node to
crash.

C++ won't deoptimize like JS if specific conditional branches are
sporadically met in the future. Combined with the amount of code
duplication removal and simplified maintenance complexity, it makes more
sense to merge MakeCallback and MakeDomainCallback.
Additionally, type casting in V8 before verifying what that type is will
cause V8 to abort in debug mode if that type isn't what was expected.
Fix this by first checking the v8::Value before casting.
