1. build: include minimal V8 headers in distribution …

   Because Node.js currently distributes all V8 headers, it is not clear
   which ones are part of our API and ABI compatibility contract. V8 may
   add, remove, or change headers at any time, preventing us sometimes
   from updating because the change could affect addons which may depend
   on them. Moreover, the `cppgc` library, included in V8, is exposed
   even though it is still in active development and doesn't have a
   stable API.
   Node.js should choose exactly which headers are exposed and part of
   our native API, so that it's easier to reason about changes during V8
   updates and to prevent us from automatically increasing the API
   surface when new headers are added by V8.
   Instead of specifically excluding v8-inspector, only include `v8.h`,
   `v8-platform.h` (used in `node.h`) and `v8-profiler.h`.
