demonstrates how to create a custom isolate abstraction. In this
test, we use an event queue to share a single thread among our custom
isolates.
Add a callback which allows embedders to see when a port is created.
Not sure if I should keep this or not.
New apis:
Dart_CreatePort() -- allocates a port id and adds a port->isolate mapping.
Dart_IsolateHasActivePorts() -- does the current isolate have open ports?
(this name a bit awkward...)
Bail out of PortMap::ClosePorts() early if there are no open ports.
This suppresses calls to the close_port_callback when there are no
open ports.
Use DART_CHECK_VALID to provide better error output when the test lib
has errors.

Sample output of the test:
-- (isolate=0x815600) Constructing isolate
-- Enter: CustomIsolateImpl_start --
-- Adding port (7111) -> isolate (0x830800) --
-- Adding StartEvent to queue --
-- Exit: CustomIsolateImpl_start --
-- Adding port (7112) -> isolate (0x815600) --
-- Posting message dest(7111) reply(0) --
-- Adding MessageEvent to queue --
-- Starting event loop --
>> StartEvent with isolate(0x830800)--
-- (isolate=0x830800) Running isolateMain

External strings refer to character data in memory located outside of
the managed heap. This memory is considered to be owned by the
embedding application. To help with the management of external
memory, the virtual machine allows the embedding application to
register for a "death notice" when an external string object is
garbage collected. A death notice takes the form of a callback
invoked by the garbage collector with the address of the external
memory. Death notices will be implemented in the garbage collector by
future commit.

Terminology change: invalid handles are now called error handles.
Unhandled exceptions used to be a kind of valid handle. Now they are
a kind of error handle.
For the Dart_Invoke* functions, this means that the standard
error-checking blob drops from two tests to one test and is
harder to mess up.
Many other Dart api functions (Dart_ToString, for example) previously
dealt with unhandled exceptions by turning them into terse error
messages. Now these functions preserve information about the
exceptions and generate better error messages.
Changed Dart_HandleMessage to return success/failure. It seemed to fit.
--
Details:
Dart_IsValid becomes Dart_IsError (negated sense).
Dart_GetError now knows how to print a stack trace semi-nicely.
Dart_ExceptionOccurred -> Dart_IsUnhandledException.
Renamed ApiFailure class to ApiError to fit better.
ApiError now has a "data" pointer that points to either an error
message string or to an unhandled exception object.
Documentation changes aplenty.

- Dart_Result is gone. Dart_Handle mostly replaces it.
- Name/signature changes
- IsValidResult -> IsValid
- GetErrorCString -> GetError
- many more...
- Make details of persistent handle freelist private.
- Add persistent "True" handle to api state.
Things I am not doing in this changelist:
- Documentation updates

==============
Added Dart_SetPostMessageCallback and Dart_SetClosePortCallback.
These allow the embedder to provide custom message/port behavior
for their application. The vm provides standard implementations
that work with the standard run loop.
Added Dart_HandleMessage, which processes one message on the
current isolate. Embedders can use this to write their own
message processing loops. Rewrote code to use this internally.
Added Isolate::StandardRunLoop() to share code between
Dart_RunLoop and lib/isolate.cc
Changed the interface to PortMap::PostMessage. PostMessage is
now agnostic to message delivery mechanism. Note that PortMap is
now out of the "ReceiveMessage" business entirely. Moved
MessageQueue and friends out to message_queue.cc/h.
Moved the monitor from the Isolate into the MessageQueue. No
need for outsiders to mess. Added MessageQueue::Wait. Moved
monitor locking from PortMap into MessageQueue itself, which was
easier for me to reason about. Wrote some tests.
Removed PortMessage::Handle. The code turned into Dart_HandleMessage.
Regularized the nomenclature around ports. Type is now always
Dart_Port instead of intptr_t. Variables end in _port instead of
_id. Use the term "dest" instead of "target" or "send".
Added a family of new tests to port_test.
Added EXPECT_NE to the test framework.
