This updates the following set of console builtins in V8 to match the
Console Standard (https://console.spec.whatwg.org) with respect to
(potentially side effecting) type conversions:
- console.debug
- console.error
- console.info
- console.log
- console.trace
- console.warn
- console.group
- console.groupCollapsed
- console.assert
The V8 implementation only performs the type conversions and updates
the arguments in-place with the results from the %String% constructor,
%parseInt%, or %parseFloat% invocations. The actual formatting is
still left completely to the debugger front-end.
To give a concrete example, the following code
```js
const msgFmt = {
toString() { return 'Message %i' }
};
console.log('LOG: %s`, msgFmt, 42);
```
sends the following parameters to the debugger front-end
```js
["LOG: %s", "Message %i", 42]
```
and it's then the job of the front-end to perform the actual string
substitutions.
It's also worth calling out that the console builtins are only
concerned with %s, %f, %d, and %i formatting specifiers, since
these are the only ones that trigger type conversions, and %o, %O,
and %c can only be implemented in a meaningful way at a higher
level.
