A simple implementation which use two objects per weak reference and
two loads for a load from a weak reference. This can be optimized later.

This CL implements `Finalizable` by means of a CFE transform.
The transform is implemented in the existing FFI transform to avoid the
overhead of traversing the AST an extra time. The FFI transform slows
down ~15-30% on Flutter Gallery. For more info see the design doc.

This CL implements the `Finalizer` in the GC.

(This CL does not yet implement `NativeFinalizer`.)

The GC is specially aware of two types of objects for the purposes of
running finalizers.

1) `FinalizerEntry`
2) `Finalizer` (`FinalizerBase`, `_FinalizerImpl`)

A `FinalizerEntry` contains the `value`, the optional `detach` key, and
the `token`, and a reference to the `finalizer`.
An entry only holds on weakly to the value, detach key, and finalizer.
(Similar to how `WeakReference` only holds on weakly to target).

A `Finalizer` contains all entries, a list of entries of which the value
is collected, and a reference to the isolate.

When a the value of an entry is GCed, the enry is added over to the
collected list.
If any entry is moved to the collected list, a message is sent that
invokes the finalizer to call the callback on all entries in that list.

When a finalizer is detached by the user, the entry token is set to the
entry itself and is removed from the all entries set.
This ensures that if the entry was already moved to the collected list,
the finalizer is not executed.

To speed up detaching, we use a weak map from detach keys to list of
entries. This ensures entries can be GCed.

Both the scavenger and marker tasks process finalizer entries in
parallel.
Parallel tasks use an atomic exchange on the head of the collected
entries list, ensuring no entries get lost.
The mutator thread is guaranteed to be stopped when processing entries.
This ensures that we do not need barriers for moving entries into the
finalizers collected list.
Dart reads and replaces the collected entries list also with an atomic
exchange, ensuring the GC doesn't run in between a load/store.

When a finalizer gets posted a message to process finalized objects, it
is being kept alive by the message.
An alternative design would be to pre-allocate a `WeakReference` in the
finalizer pointing to the finalizer, and send that itself.
This would be at the cost of an extra object.

Send and exit is not supported in this CL, support will be added in a
follow up CL. Trying to send will throw.

This CL implements `NativeFinalizer` in the GC.

`FinalizerEntry`s are extended to track `external_size` and in which
`Heap::Space` the finalizable value is.

On attaching a native finalizer, the external size is added to the
relevant heap. When the finalizable value is promoted from new to old
space, the external size is promoted as well. And when a native
finalizer is run or is detached, the external size is removed from the
relevant heap again.

In contrast to Dart `Finalizer`s, `NativeFinalizer`s are run on isolate
shutdown.

When the `NativeFinalizer`s themselves are collected, the finalizers are
not run. Users should stick the native finalizer in a global variable to
ensure finalization. We will revisit this design when we add send and
exit support, because there is a design space to explore what to do in
that case. This current solution promises the least to users.

In this implementation native finalizers have a Dart entry to clean up
the entries from the `all_entries` field of the finalizer. We should
consider using another data structure that avoids the need for this Dart
entry. See the TODO left in the code.
