The cause for missing functions is that some of them are created
from compiled code (see FastNewClosureStub), and thus not get
registered in profiler's code map.
My solution is to hook on GC visitor to provide JS functions
addresses to profiler, only if it is enabled.

It turns out they were filtered out. But when I unfiltered them, I
discovered another issue: when DevTools run, regexp literals get
recompiled each time they called (looks like this is concerned with
switching to full compiler), so I ended up having multiple entries for
the same regexp. To fix this, I changed the way of how code entries
equivalence is considered.

to avoid storing serialized snapshot on VM, instead it is emitted
using output stream interface.
The size of JSON emitted is roughly equal to used heap size
(when stored as an ASCII string).
Now a whole heap snapshot can be serialized and transmitted outside
VM. This makes possible:
- implementing non-async UI for heap snapshots inspection;
- storing heap snapshots for further inspection;
- remote profiling (we can even implement a snapshotting mode
where a snapshot isn't even stored in VM, only transmitted --
good for mobile devices);
- creating tools for outside heap snapshots processing, e.g.
converting to HPROF.

To trace objects between snapshots, an external map of object tags is
maintained. After the first heap snapshot has been taken, the map is
updated by reporting object moves from the GC. If no snapshots were
taken, there is no overhead (except for flag checking).
I considered graph comparison algorithms that doesn't require using
object tags, but they are all of a high computational complexity, and
will still fail to detect object moves properly, even for trivial
cases, so using tags looks like unavoidable.

As several pages can run in a single V8 instance, it is possible to
have functions from different security contexts intermixed in a single
CPU profile. To avoid exposing function names from one page to
another, filtering is introduced.
The basic idea is that instead of capturing return addresses from
stack, we're now capturing JSFunction addresses (as we anyway work
only with JS stack frames.) Each JSFunction can reach out for
context's security token. When providing a profile to a page, the
profile is filtered using the security token of caller page. Any
functions with different security tokens are filtered out (yes, we
only do fast path check for now) and their ticks are attributed to
their parents.

The simple formula "ms = ticks * sampler_interval" doesn't work,
because e.g. on Linux, the actual sampling rate can be 5 times
lower than the one set up in the code. To calculate actual sampling
rate, current time is periodically queried and processed along with
actual sampling ticks count.

In browser (DevTools) mode, only non-native JS code and callbacks are reported.
Also, added "(garbage collector)" entry which accumulates samples count in GC state.
Trying to display "(compiler)" and "(external)" only brings confusion,
because it ends up in displaying scripts code under "(compiler)" node, and DOM
event handlers under "(external)" node, which looks weird.
