Threads in the native or blocked states don't prevent safepoints, so they may run concurrently with a safepoint operation like GC. It is not safe for handles to be allocated while the GC is visiting them, so these threads must not allocate handles. Assert only threads in the VM or generated states, which prevent safepoints until they check in, may allocate handles. (Generated code does not allocate handles, but leaf runtime entries remain in the generated state.)

The purpose of this change is twofold:
1. Source in the bin directory can now use the same assertions as
source in the vm directory. The ASSERT macro used by the code
in runtime/bin was just defined to use assert from the standard
C library.
2. Moving other implementation parts from runtime/vm to
runtime/platform (e.g. classes Monitor and Mutex) for sharing
between runtime/bin and runtime/vm will be easier as these
implementations rely on these assertion macros.
Created two gypi files for the platform directory. One for the
headers and one for the source. The source one is only included
when building the VM library and will be present in libdart.a
when the dart executable is linked.
All the code for asserts is still in the dart namespace.
Also re-arranged the order of includes to be alphabetically in
the files touched.
