build: speed up startup with V8 code cache
This patch speeds up the startup time and reduce the startup memory
footprint by using V8 code cache when comiling builtin modules.

The current approach is demonstrated in the `with-code-cache`
Makefile target (no corresponding Windows target at the moment).

1. Build the binary normally (`src/node_code_cache_stub.cc` is used),
  by now `internalBinding('code_cache')` is an empty object
2. Run `tools/generate_code_cache.js` with the binary, which generates
  the code caches by reading source code of builtin modules off source
  code exposed by `require('internal/bootstrap/cache').builtinSource`
  and then generate a C++ file containing static char arrays of the
  code cache, using a format similar to `node_javascript.cc`
3. Run `configure` with the `--code-cache-path` option so that
  the newly generated C++ file will be used when compiling the
  new binary. The generated C++ file will put the cache into
  the `internalBinding('code_cache')` object with the module
  ids as keys
4. The new binary tries to read the code cache from
  `internalBinding('code_cache')` and use it to compile
  builtin modules. If the cache is used, it will put the id
  into `require('internal/bootstrap/cache').compiledWithCache`
  for bookkeeping, otherwise the id will be pushed into
  `require('internal/bootstrap/cache').compiledWithoutCache`

This patch also added tests that verify the code cache is
generated and used when compiling builtin modules.

The binary with code cache:

- Is ~1MB bigger than the binary without code cahe
- Consumes ~1MB less memory during start up
- Starts up about 60% faster

// This file creates the internal module & binding loaders used by built-in
// modules. In contrast, user land modules are loaded using
// lib/internal/modules/cjs/loader.js (CommonJS Modules) or
// lib/internal/modules/esm/* (ES Modules).
//
// This file is compiled and run by node.cc before bootstrap/node.js
// was called, therefore the loaders are bootstraped before we start to
// actually bootstrap Node.js. It creates the following objects:
//
// C++ binding loaders:
// - process.binding(): the legacy C++ binding loader, accessible from user land
// because it is an object attached to the global process object.
// These C++ bindings are created using NODE_BUILTIN_MODULE_CONTEXT_AWARE()
// and have their nm_flags set to NM_F_BUILTIN. We do not make any guarantees
// about the stability of these bindings, but still have to take care of
// compatibility issues caused by them from time to time.
// - process._linkedBinding(): intended to be used by embedders to add
// additional C++ bindings in their applications. These C++ bindings
// can be created using NODE_MODULE_CONTEXT_AWARE_CPP() with the flag
// NM_F_LINKED.
// - internalBinding(): the private internal C++ binding loader, inaccessible
// from user land because they are only available from NativeModule.require()
// These C++ bindings are created using NODE_MODULE_CONTEXT_AWARE_INTERNAL()
// and have their nm_flags set to NM_F_INTERNAL.
//
// Internal JavaScript module loader:
// - NativeModule: a minimal module system used to load the JavaScript core
// modules found in lib/**/*.js and deps/**/*.js. All core modules are
// compiled into the node binary via node_javascript.cc generated by js2c.py,
// so they can be loaded faster without the cost of I/O. This class makes the
// lib/internal/*, deps/internal/* modules and internalBinding() available by
// default to core modules, and lets the core modules require itself via
// require('internal/bootstrap/loaders') even when this file is not written in
// CommonJS style.
//
// Other objects:
// - process.moduleLoadList: an array recording the bindings and the modules
// loaded in the process and the order in which they are loaded.
