vogelheim@chromium.org 7b7bb25a24 Support external startup data in V8.
[Re-retry of r21696 and r21739]

If the embedder chooses, the 'natives' (library sources) and the
precompiled startup blob can be written to files during the build
process and handed over to V8 at startup. The main purpose would be
to reduce the size of the compiled binary for space constrained
platforms.

The build-time option is off by default. Nothing should change if
it's not enabled.

# This utility concatenates several files into one. On Unix-like systems
# it is equivalent to:
# cat file1 file2 file3 ...files... > target
#
# The reason for writing a seperate utility is that 'cat' is not available
# on all supported build platforms, but Python is, and hence this provides
# us with an easy and uniform way of doing this on all platforms.
