src: drop homegrown thread pool, use libplatform

Rodrigo Muino Tomonari requested to merge github/fork/bnoordhuis/use-libplatform into v1.x

Drop the homegrown thread pool that was introduced in commit 50839a04 ("v8_platform: provide default v8::Platform impl") and use one from V8's libplatform library. Performance is comparable and it removes a few hundred lines of code.

The calls to v8::platform::PumpMessageLoop() are currently no-ops because V8 does not (yet?) use v8::Platform::CallOnForegroundThread().

Packagers that link against a shared libv8 now also need to make libv8_platform available.
