mikhail.naganov@gmail.com e97554ed10 Add generic V8 API functions for controlling profiling aspects.
As we'll have several aspects of heap profiling, it is more handy to control them using binary flags than by individual functions. CPU profiling represent just a particular aspect to control, so {Pause,Resume}Profiler and IsProfilerPaused are only left for compatibility.

For now, PROFILER_FLAG_HEAP_STATS and PROFILER_FLAG_JS_CONSTRUCTOR are equivalent, but later will be split.

* longer used.

/**
* A FunctionTemplate is used to create functions at runtime. There
* can only be one function created from a FunctionTemplate in a
* context.
*
* A FunctionTemplate can have properties, these properties are added to the
* function object when it is created.
*
* A FunctionTemplate has a corresponding instance template which is
* used to create object instances when the function is used as a
* constructor. Properties added to the instance template are added to
* each object instance.
*
* A FunctionTemplate can have a prototype template. The prototype template
* is used to create the prototype object of the function.
*
* The following example shows how to use a FunctionTemplate:
*
* \code
* v8::Local<v8::FunctionTemplate> t = v8::FunctionTemplate::New();
* t->Set("func_property", v8::Number::New(1));
*
* v8::Local<v8::Template> proto_t = t->PrototypeTemplate();
* proto_t->Set("proto_method", v8::FunctionTemplate::New(InvokeCallback));
* proto_t->Set("proto_const", v8::Number::New(2));
*
* v8::Local<v8::ObjectTemplate> instance_t = t->InstanceTemplate();
* instance_t->SetAccessor("instance_accessor", InstanceAccessorCallback);
* instance_t->SetNamedPropertyHandler(PropertyHandlerCallback, ...);
* instance_t->Set("instance_property", Number::New(3));
*
* v8::Local<v8::Function> function = t->GetFunction();
* v8::Local<v8::Object> instance = function->NewInstance();
* \endcode
*
* Let's use "function" as the JS variable name of the function object
* and "instance" for the instance object created above. The function
* and the instance will have the following properties:
*
* \code
* func_property in function == true;
* function.func_property == 1;
*
* function.prototype.proto_method() invokes 'InvokeCallback'
* function.prototype.proto_const == 2;
*
* instance instanceof function == true;
* instance.instance_accessor calls 'InstanceAccessorCallback'
* instance.instance_property == 3;
* \endcode
*
* A FunctionTemplate can inherit from another one by calling the
* FunctionTemplate::Inherit method. The following graph illustrates
* the semantics of inheritance:
*
* \code
* FunctionTemplate Parent -> Parent() . prototype -> { }
* ^ ^
* | Inherit(Parent) | .__proto__
* | |
* FunctionTemplate Child -> Child() . prototype -> { }
* \endcode
*
* A FunctionTemplate 'Child' inherits from 'Parent', the prototype
* object of the Child() function has __proto__ pointing to the
* Parent() function's prototype object. An instance of the Child
* function has all properties on Parent's instance templates.
*
* Let Parent be the FunctionTemplate initialized in the previous
* section and create a Child FunctionTemplate by:
*
* \code
* Local<FunctionTemplate> parent = t;
* Local<FunctionTemplate> child = FunctionTemplate::New();
* child->Inherit(parent);
*
* Local<Function> child_function = child->GetFunction();
* Local<Object> child_instance = child_function->NewInstance();
* \endcode
*
* The Child function and Child instance will have the following
* properties:
*
* \code
* child_func.prototype.__proto__ == function.prototype;
* child_instance.instance_accessor calls 'InstanceAccessorCallback'
* child_instance.instance_property == 3;
* \endcode

/**
* Multiple threads in V8 are allowed, but only one thread at a time
* is allowed to use V8. The definition of 'using V8' includes
* accessing handles or holding onto object pointers obtained from V8
* handles. It is up to the user of V8 to ensure (perhaps with
* locking) that this constraint is not violated.
*
* If you wish to start using V8 in a thread you can do this by constructing
* a v8::Locker object. After the code using V8 has completed for the
* current thread you can call the destructor. This can be combined
* with C++ scope-based construction as follows:
*
* \code
* ...
* {
* v8::Locker locker;
* ...
* // Code using V8 goes here.
* ...
* } // Destructor called here
* \endcode
*
* If you wish to stop using V8 in a thread A you can do this by either
* by destroying the v8::Locker object as above or by constructing a
* v8::Unlocker object:
*
* \code
* {
* v8::Unlocker unlocker;
* ...
* // Code not using V8 goes here while V8 can run in another thread.
* ...
* } // Destructor called here.
* \endcode
*
* The Unlocker object is intended for use in a long-running callback
* from V8, where you want to release the V8 lock for other threads to
* use.
*
* The v8::Locker is a recursive lock. That is, you can lock more than
* once in a given thread. This can be useful if you have code that can
* be called either from code that holds the lock or from code that does
* not. The Unlocker is not recursive so you can not have several
* Unlockers on the stack at once, and you can not use an Unlocker in a
* thread that is not inside a Locker's scope.
*
* An unlocker will unlock several lockers if it has to and reinstate
* the correct depth of locking on its destruction. eg.:
*
* \code
* // V8 not locked.
* {
* v8::Locker locker;
* // V8 locked.
* {
* v8::Locker another_locker;
* // V8 still locked (2 levels).
* {
* v8::Unlocker unlocker;
* // V8 not locked.
* }
* // V8 locked again (2 levels).
* }
* // V8 still locked (1 level).
* }
* // V8 Now no longer locked.
