Hello, I work on Dr. Memory and DynamoRIO, and I'm trying to set up a bot to
test DR running V8 on its test suite. This patch will let me pass through the
DR command prefix without too many shell escaping acrobatics.

---
Background:

DynamoRIO is a dynamic binary instrumentation framework like Valgrind. Unlike Valgrind, we use page protections and sandboxing to detect code modification,
while Valgrind relies on annotations in V8.

We keep hitting corner case bugs in DR while running full chrome that come from V8's code modification. Debugging these issues in full chrome is really slow and difficult. V8's test suite finds the same issues in DR more quickly and is more reproducible. So, my goal is to get DR through the V8 test suite and set
up a bot so we don't regress.

Here's the bot I'm working on:
http://build.chromium.org/p/client.dynamorio/builders/linux-v8-dr/
Currently it just builds bleeding-edge V8 and runs some tests.

I'm not a V8 contributor, so let me know if I need to do anything else to get
the patch committed.  Thanks!
