  Log Message:
  -----------
  inspector/heap/getPreview.html is a flaky failure

Reviewed by Alexey Proskuryakov.

The test picked its target heap-snapshot node using an unreliable
heuristic: the instance with the highest 'id' among all instances of
a given class. That is not guaranteed to be the specific object the
test just created (window.myString/myFunction/myMap), since other
incidental allocations of the same class can happen in the same
snapshot window and end up with a higher id, making the test flaky.

Replaced all four occurrences of this heuristic (GetPreviewForString,
GetPreviewForFunction, GetPreviewForObject, and the collected-object
case) with a deterministic findNodeByPropertyName() helper: walk each
candidate node's retainer edges and pick the one actually referenced
by the expected property/variable name.

Local reproduction went from failing in roughly 16-18% of iterations
before this change to 0 failures in 400 iterations after it.

Also removed the now-stale flaky-test expectations for GTK and
mac-wk2.
