Remove the 'gc' event from the v8 module and remove the supporting
infrastructure from src/. It gets the axe because:
1. There are currently no users. It was originally conceived as
an upstreamed subset of StrongLoop's strong-agent GC metrics,
but the strong-agent code base has evolved considerably since
that time and has no use anymore for what is in core.
2. The implementation is not quite sound. It calls into JS land
from inside the GC epilog and that is unsafe. We could fix
that by delaying the callback until a safe time but because
there are no users anyway, removing it is all around easier.

Fixes the following assertion on slow systems, like our ARM buildbot:
$ out/Debug/node test/simple/test-timers-unref.js
node: ../src/async-wrap-inl.h:101: v8::Handle<v8::Value>
node::AsyncWrap::MakeCallback(uint32_t, int,
v8::Handle<v8::Value>*): Assertion `cb_v->IsFunction()' failed.
Aborted
The reason it only manifests on slow systems is that the test starts
a 1 ms interval timer, then defers timer.unref.bind({}) to the next
tick. On fast systems, the test completes in under a millisecond,
before the callback is called.
This commit makes timer.unref() check that the receiver actually has
a timeout callback property.
Fixes#13.
