lib, src: upgrade after v8 api change
This is a big commit that touches just about every file in the src/ directory. The V8 API has changed in significant ways. The most important changes are: * Binding functions take a const v8::FunctionCallbackInfo<T>& argument rather than a const v8::Arguments& argument. * Binding functions return void rather than v8::Handle<v8::Value>. The return value is returned with the args.GetReturnValue().Set() family of functions. * v8::Persistent<T> no longer derives from v8::Handle<T> and no longer allows you to directly dereference the object that the persistent handle points to. This means that the common pattern of caching oft-used JS values in a persistent handle no longer quite works, you first need to reconstruct a v8::Local<T> from the persistent handle with the Local<T>::New(isolate, persistent) factory method. A handful of (internal) convenience classes and functions have been added to make dealing with the new API a little easier. The most visible one is node::Cached<T>, which wraps a v8::Persistent<T> with some template sugar. It can hold arbitrary types but so far it's exclusively used for v8::Strings (which was by far the most commonly cached handle type.)
