099cb420b9 [console] Proper type conversions in console builtins.
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.

701d79d08a [inspector] introduced console.context
console.context(name:string) method returns console instance, this console instance fully implements console interface (including fact that any method can be called without console as receiver).
Protocol.Runtime.consoleAPICalled notification contains additional context:string field:
- "anonymous#unique-id" for any method call on unnamed console context,
- "name#unique-id" for any method call on named console context.

console.count and console.timeEnd have context as a scope.
console.clear clear all messages regardless on what context instance it was called.

console calls is ~10% slower with this CL since we need to store and then fetch console_context_id and console_context_name from function object.
We recently (in April) made console calls twice faster so 10% doesn't sound critical and existing of console.log call in hot code is problem by itself.
