Benedikt Meurer 877dcdfc3a [inspector] Don't hold on to Script objects strongly for caching.
Previously we'd hold on to Script objects strongly after they are
considered unreachable by V8 itself, and keep them around for the
V8DebuggerAgent cache (whose upper limit can be controlled with a
parameter to `Debugger.enable`).

This CL changes that to instead copy out the script source and the
WebAssembly bytecode (depending on whether it's JavaScript or Wasm)
to the C++ heap and keep it cached there.

Getting the Code

Checkout depot tools, and run

    fetch v8

This will checkout V8 into the directory v8 and fetch all of its dependencies. To stay up to date, run

    git pull origin
    gclient sync

For fetching all branches, add the following into your remote configuration in .git/config:

    fetch = +refs/branch-heads/*:refs/remotes/branch-heads/*
    fetch = +refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*
