Previous implementation of sampler for OS X was copied from the Linux one. But BSD (OS X) and Linux has a very important difference in signal handling. LinuxThreads doesn't support the notion of process-directed signals. So, the SIGPROF signal was directed to the thread that installed the handler---the V8 thread. But on BSD, signal handling is implemented according to POSIX spec, where process-directed signal is to be handled by an arbitrary selected thread. By a coincidence, in V8's sample shell and in Chromium's test shell, V8's thread was picked almost every time, so sampling seemed working. But not in case of Chromium.
So, I've changed the implementation of profiler sampler to use the same scheme as on Windows---a dedicated thread with high priority is used to periodically pause and sample V8's thread.

This issue was raised by Brett Wilson while reviewing my changelist for readability. Craig Silverstein (one of C++ SG maintainers) confirmed that we should declare one namespace per line. Our way of namespaces closing seems not violating style guides (there is no clear agreement on it), so I left it intact.

a reason to stack allocate large chunks of stack space.
- Runtime_GetCFrames used to allocate a frame size of 52040 bytes.
- PreallocatedMemoryThread::Run used to allocate 32784 bytes.
- Fixed StringStream overflow conditions.

and unprotecting it when (re)entering. The functionality is enabled
by the flag --protect-heap and requires V8 to be built with
ENABLE_HEAP_PROTECTION and ENABLE_LOGGING_AND_PROFILING defined.
Implemented on Linux and Windows but not yet for other platforms.

Initially the platform socket implementation has been moved from the Linux, Mac OS and FreeBSD platforms to the POSIX platform.
If implementation which ends up in the POSIX platform at some point cannot be the same across POSIX platforms the implementation can easily be moved back into the individual POSIX "complient" platforms.

The code has been compiled and tested on Windows, Linux and Mac OS.
The FreeBSD version is a copy of the Linux version which should work on FreeBSD as well. According to the FreeBSD documentation clock_gettime is part of the standard C library so the assumption is that no additional link libraries is required for FreeBSD.

The new Socket class is an encapsulation of the standard BSD socket API. As it depends on platform specific include files and have some slight platform variations it is part of the platform code.
On Mac OS only the option SO_REUSEADDR is set to true for server sockets. Running the test required it as the bound listener socket would sometimes end up in TIME_WAIT. On Windows and Linux this has never been observed (given the client end of the socket is closed before the server end).
The code has been tested on Windows, Linux and Mac OS. The FreeBSD version is a copy of the Linux version but has not been compiled nor tested.
Missing Xcode project updates.
