The alternative of passing an object template at context creation is
unfeasible because we need a context to instantiate the template.
At the time we create the context from snapshot or bootstrap from
scratch, we would already need that template instance, leading to a
chicken-and-egg problem.
This is an alternative that is simpler and less intrusive.

For the moment, we only pass the global object (the one we are setting up).
A few smaller changes were necessary to avoid failures in
test-object-observe/DontLeakContextOnObserve. Otherwise the global object
would be retained by being context allocated, leading to test failure.

Exposed to the extras as extrasExports (on the builtins object), on
which they can put things that should be accessible from C++. Exposed
to C++ through the V8 API as v8::Context::GetExtrasExportsObject().
Adding a test (in test-api.cc) required adding a simple extra,
test-extra.js, which we build into the standalone builds.
