The issue is that Worker.prototype.terminate was deleting the C++ Worker
object, and then Worker.prototype.getMessage was trying to read messages from
the queue.
The simplest solution is to keep workers in a zombie state when they have been
terminated. They won't be reaped until Shell::CleanupWorkers is called.
I've also fixed some threading issues with Workers:
* Workers can be created by another Worker, so the Shell::workers_ variable
must be protected by a mutex.
* An individual Worker can typically only be accessed by the isolate that
created it, but the main thread can always terminate it, so the Worker::state_
must be accessed in a thread-safe way.

This API closely matches the Worker API. The differences:
1) The argument to the Worker constructor is a function to run, not a script.
2) Receiving a message from a worker is a synchronous API (as there is no event
loop).
The serialization done here is not robust as the real DOM implementation. For
example, recursive data structures or otherwise duplicated objects are not
allowed.
