Created Revert of Prevent calls to ReturnValue::Set with pointer-valued types.

Description:
Revert of Prevent calls to ReturnValue::Set with pointer-valued types.
(https://codereview.chromium.org/240013004/)

Reason for revert:
Looks like this broke the "V8 Linux64 ASAN" build.

Original issue's description:
Prevent calls to ReturnValue::Set with pointer-valued types.

Currently, this code will compile:
   SomePointer* p = ...;
   ReturnValue r = ...;
   r.Set(p);

What happens is that ReturnValue::Set has no pointer-ish overloads, but
a bool one, and hence C++ will convert the pointer to a bool and use
the Set(bool) overload. In other words, the example above is equivalent
to: r.Set(p ? true : false); Which probably isn't what the author had
in mind. This change adds a Set(void*) overload whose body forces a
compile error, to prevent this from happening inadvertently. The only
use of this indeed turned out to be an error.

(Said error was fixed/removed in crrev.com/267393002.)
