This integrates TypeScript into the compile cache by caching
the transpilation (either type-stripping or transforming) output
in addition to the V8 code cache that's generated from the
transpilation output.
Locally this speeds up loading with type stripping of
`benchmark/fixtures/strip-types-benchmark.ts` by ~65% and
loading with type transforms of
`fixtures/transform-types-benchmark.ts` by ~128%.
When comparing loading .ts and loading pre-transpiled .js on-disk
with the compile cache enabled, previously .ts loaded 46% slower
with type-stripping and 66% slower with transforms compared to
loading .js files directly.
After this patch, .ts loads 12% slower with type-stripping and
22% slower with transforms compared to .js.
(Note that the numbers are based on microbenchmark fixtures and
do not necessarily represent real-world workloads, though with
bigger real-world files, the speed up should be more significant).

V8 introduced `v8::LocalVector` somewhat recently as an alternative
to using `std::vector<v8::Local<T>>` to help ensure that Local handles
are handled correctly. This updates most (but not all) of our uses
of `std::vector<v8::Local<T>>` to use `v8::LocalVector<T>` with a few
other minor cleanups encountered along the way.

This implements an API for users to intentionally flush the
accumulated compile cache instead of waiting until process
shutdown. It may be useful for application that loads dependencies
first and then either reload itself in other instances, or spawning
other instances that load an overlapping set of its dependencies -
in this case its useful to flush the cache early instead of waiting
until the shutdown of itself.
Currently flushing is triggered by either process
shutdown or user requests. In the future we should simply start the
writes right after module loading on a separate thread, and this method
only blocks until all the pending writes (if any) on the other thread
are finished. In that case, the off-thread writes should finish long
before any attempt of flushing is made so the method would then only
incur a negligible overhead from thread synchronization.

This patch adds the following API for tools to enable compile
cache dynamically and query its status.
- module.enableCompileCache(cacheDir)
- module.getCompileCacheDir()
In addition this adds a NODE_DISABLE_COMPILE_CACHE environment
variable to disable the code cache enabled by the APIs as
an escape hatch to avoid unexpected/undesired effects of
the compile cache (e.g. less precise test coverage).
When the module.enableCompileCache() method is invoked without
a specified directory, Node.js will use the value of
the NODE_COMPILE_CACHE environment variable if it's set, or
defaults to `path.join(os.tmpdir(), 'node-compile-cache')`
otherwise. Therefore it's recommended for tools to call this
method without specifying the directory to allow overrides.
