This is a reland of 517ab73fd7
Updates since original: now compressed pointers passed to the function
GetObjectProperties are required to be sign-extended. Previously, the
function allowed zero-extended values, but that led to ambiguity on
pointers like 0x88044919: is it compressed or is the heap range actually
centered on 0x100000000?
Original change's description:
> Add postmortem debugging helper library
>
> This change begins to implement the functionality described in
> https://docs.google.com/document/d/1evHnb1uLlSbvHAAsmOXyc25x3uh1DjgNa8u1RHvwVhk/edit#
> for investigating V8 state in crash dumps.
>
> This change adds a new library, v8_debug_helper, for providing platform-
> agnostic assistance with postmortem debugging. This library can be used
> by extensions built for debuggers such as WinDbg or lldb. Its public API
> is described by debug-helper.h; currently the only method it exposes is
> GetObjectProperties, but we'd like to add more functionality over time.
> The API surface is restricted to plain C-style structs and pointers, so
> that it's easy to link from a debugger extension built with a different
> toolchain.
>
> This change also adds a new cctest file to exercise some basic
> interaction with the new library.
>
> The API function GetObjectProperties takes an object pointer (which
> could be compressed, or weak, or a SMI), and returns a string
> description of the object and a list of properties the object contains.
> For now, the list of properties is entirely based on Torque object
> definitions, but we expect to add custom properties in future updates so
> that it can be easier to make sense of complex data structures such as
> dictionaries.
>
> GetObjectProperties does several things that are intended to generate
> somewhat useful results even in cases where memory may be corrupt or
> unavailable:
> - The caller may optionally provide a type string which will be used if
> the memory for the object's Map is inaccessible.
> - All object pointers are compared against the list of known objects
> generated by mkgrokdump. The caller may optionally provide the
> pointers for the first pages of various heap spaces, to avoid spurious
> matches. If those pointers are not provided, then any matches are
> prefixed with "maybe" in the resulting description string, such as
> "maybe UndefinedValue (0x4288000341 <Oddball>)".
