Log: Expose gc(true) to JavaScript, which triggers a scavenger GC.
With the --expose_gc option, gc() is exposed to JavaScript. Currently gc()
triggers a full GC.
To enable JavaScript to test the behavior of a scavenger GC, this patch
exposes gc(true). If the first argument is true, gc(...) triggers a
scavenger GC. Otherwise, gc(...) triggers a full GC.
BUG=
Test=Manually confirmed that gc() and gc(false) trigger a full GC and that
gc(true) triggers a scavenger GC.
