Camillo Bruni ecc3cd256a [tools] Improve gcmole part II
Prepare gcmole.cc for the next update:
- Print possible GC locations when discovering stale/dead variables
- Make error messages less confusing for the modern V8 engineer
- Prepare gcmole to read suspects.allowlist instead of .whitelist
- Use more readable variable names
- Only log non-found types with --verbose
- Change the currently unusued gccauses format in gcmole.py and
  support loading it back in gcmole.cc
- Implemented first basic gc call-chain printing (disabled by default)

GCmole packaging:
- Add debug mode to bootstrap.sh build script
- Update gcmole.py run instructions in bootstrap.sh and package.sh
