deps: backport 9da3ab6 from V8 upstream

This patch exposes a new flag perf_basic_prof_only_functions (disabled by
default) that can be useful for the use-case of running always-on profiling on
long running production jobs.

Original commit
https://github.com/v8/v8/commit/9da3ab661fe7190fcb99bd99db30cf95913d3659
  New flag --perf_basic_prof_only_functions
  Restricts linux perf-event code range reporting to functions only (i.e. on
  stubs.) While this makes the gathered ticks less accurate, it reduces the
  growth of the /tmp/perf-${pid}.map file.
