Michael Starzinger db7bdf4829 Revert "[platform] Remove {PageAllocator::kReadWriteExecute}."
This reverts commit bf19e60cc5.

Reason for revert: Two issues discovered with W^X in V8's 6.5 branch (see v8:7272 and chromium:793428). Still need a way to disable the feature.

Original change's description:
> [platform] Remove {PageAllocator::kReadWriteExecute}.
> 
> Now that write-protection of code memory is enabled everywhere and V8 is
> fully W^X compliant, we can remove the permission mode in question.
