Thread class was receiving an isolate parameter by default.
This approact violates the assumption that only VM threads
can have an associated isolate, and can lead to troubles,
because accessing the same isolate from different threads
leads to race conditions.
This was found by investigating mysterious failures of the
CPU profiler layout test on Linux Chromium. As almost all
threads were associated with some isolate, the sampler was
trying to sample them.
As a side effect, we have also fixed the DebuggerAgent test.
Thanks to Vitaly for help in fixing isolates handling!

Patch by Dmitry Lomov.
pthreads implementations are free to reuse pthread_t (thread id) after
the thread has died. This change gets rid of ThreadHandle class and
replaces it with v8-managed thread identifiers.

- Removed the potential for a NULL pointer access in
ContextSwitcher::PreemptionReceived.
- Removed a leak of the semaphore in the ContexSwitcher thread, by removing
the need for this semaphore entirely.
- Added a regression test case which will catch accesses to the ContextSwitcher
singleton after it has been stopped.
