The message handler function set through the debugger API is normally called in a different thread than the V8 thread where execution is stopped due to debugger event. This change adds an option to the API for specifying that the message handler should be called directly from the V8 thread. For an application like Chrome where thread dispatching is already in place this makes more sense.
Add an option to the message handler debugger API to process messages in the thread where V8 is running instead of posting it to a queue for processing on a additional thread.

The debugger agent listens on a TCP/IP port for a remote debugger connection. When such a connection is established the debuger JSON protocol is communicated between the agent the the remote debugger. The messages containing the JSON protocol has a RFC-822 like header with a Content-Length field and with the body containing the JSON in UTF-8 encoding.
The D8 shell has option --debugger-agent to start the debugger agent.

Add the ability to have the host embedding V8 receive a callback in the V8 thread while V8 is processing a debug callback. When V8 is processing a debug callback the thread where V8 is executing is sitting in a tight loop processing debug commands until the continue command has been executed. In some embedding situations it is beneficial to be able to call back into the embedding host from the thread where V8 is sitting. The might have functions which needs to be called to complement the JavaScript debugging.
Using the uint16_t array to pass a void* is a temporary hack.

Moved the registrered debug event listener from the context to a global handle in the Debugger class. Storing it in the context did not make much sense.
Changed a lot of tests to handle the API change.
