It turns out that the "entrance counter" concept was unnecessary.
Whenever we run script, we increment it, and whenever we clean up after
running script, we decrement it. So it is always nonzero. Thus we can
simply look for whether it's a realm execution context.

Fixes #2441.

/cc @jensl @bzbarsky. This should be effectively an editorial change.

"Jens Lindström" used to be me, before I got married. Might make sense to remove this entry, now that my new name was added to the list.

I discussed this with @jensl to try to understand what's going on here. Since the counter is unused it can be removed without any normative change. Having it there opens the opportunity for bugs of using the wrong realm. No new tests needed for this change, but having tests in general for multiple globals/environment settings objects/etc would be good.

Thanks @zcorpan. We indeed keep adding new tests, mostly while checking off boxes in #1430 and #1431.
