Camillo Bruni fffcbaea55 [counters] Fix reentrant timers for V8.Execute
This CL fixes a long standing issue where reentering TimedHistograms
scopes would cause spurious measurements. Only the non-nested scopes
yielded correct results.

Due to the changed numbers, the V8.Execute histogram is renamed to
V8.ExecuteMicroSeconds. Note that this histogram is also guarded
behind the --slow-histograms flag due to the additional overhead.

Unlike before, it does no longer include time for external callbacks
and only measures self time. The following example illustrates the
new behaviour:

1. Enter V8:           |--+.......+--| self-time: 4 units (reported)
2. Exit V8 (callback):    |-+...+-|    self-time: 2 units (ignored)
3. Re-enter V8:             |---|      self-time: 3 units (reported)

This would result in 2 histogram entries with 4 time units for the first
V8 slice and 3 units for the nested part. Note that the callback time
itself is ignored.

This CL attempts to clean up how TimedHistograms work:
- Histogram: the base class
- TimedHistograms: used for time-related histograms that are not nested
- NestedTimeHistograms: Extends TimedHistograms and is used for nested
  histograms

This CL changes Histograms to not measure time themselves. Measurements
happen in the *HistogramScopes:
- BaseTimedHistogramScope: Base functionality
- TimedHistogramScope: For non-nested measurements
- NestedTimedHistogramScope: For nested measurements
- PauseNestedTimedHistogramScope: Ignore time during a given scope.
  This is used to pause timers during callbacks.

Additional changes:
- ExternalCallbackScope now contains a PauseNestedTimedHistogramScope
  and always sets VMState<EXTERNAL>
