platform check.

domain: forward args to .run(fn)

Adds the feature to define arguments for the function called in
domain.run(), this is supposed to be useful when a function is called from
another context and some values from the current context are needed as
arguments, it's similar to the callback from setTimeout or setInterval.

Per the TC meeting on 2014-12-10, domains will be "soft deprecated"
until a suitable replacement API is available; at which time they
will be fully deprecated. Full deprecation will include references
to replacement API and the application of util.deprecate to the domain
api.

src: fix addon loader regression

Fix a regression that was introduced in commit a38b9178 by removing the
bad check.  Also rearrange the addon loading logic to ensure that the
list of pending addons remains in a consistent state when the shared
object fails to load; in particular, when an addon self-registers first,
then hits a dynamic linker error in a later constructor.

Fixes the following asserting when loading a .node shared object:

    node: ../src/node.cc:1944: void node::node_module_register(void*):
    Assertion `(modpending) != (nullptr)' failed.

Fixes strongloop/strongops#233.

src: redo unaligned access workaround

src: move BE/LE buffer conversion to StringSlice()

Move the big endian to little endian conversion logic for UCS2 input
from src/string_bytes.cc to src/node_buffer.cc; StringSlice() is the
only function that actually needs it and with this commit, a second
copy is avoided on big endian architectures.
lib: reintroduce v8 module

I introduced this module over a year ago in a pull request as the v8
module but it was quickly subsumed by the tracing module.

The tracing module was recently removed again and that is why this
commit introduces the v8 module again, including the new features it
picked up commits d23ac0e and f8076c4.
