[wasm] Reference indirect tables as addresses of global handles

This sets us up for getting the wasm code generation off the GC heap.
We reference tables as global handles, which have a stable address. This
requires an extra instruction when attempting to make an indirect call,
per table (i.e. one for the signature table and one for the function
table).

V8 Project page: https://github.com/v8/v8/wiki

Getting the Code

Checkout depot tools, and run

    fetch v8

This will checkout V8 into the directory v8 and fetch all of its dependencies. To stay up to date, run

    git pull origin
    gclient sync

For fetching all branches, add the following into your remote configuration in .git/config:

    fetch = +refs/branch-heads/*:refs/remotes/branch-heads/*
    fetch = +refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*
