worker: implement worker.moveMessagePortToContext()

This enables using `MessagePort`s in different `vm.Context`s,
aiding with the isolation that the `vm` module seeks to provide.

+## worker.moveMessagePortToContext(port, contextifiedSandbox)
+<!-- YAML
+added: REPLACEME
+-->
+
+* `port` {MessagePort} The message port which will be transferred.
+* `contextifiedSandbox` {Object} A [contextified][] object as returned by the
+  `vm.createContext()` method.
+
+* Returns: {MessagePort}
+
+Transfer a `MessagePort` to a different [`vm`][] Context. The original `port`
+object will be rendered unusable, and the returned `MessagePort` instance will
+take its place.
+
+The returned `MessagePort` will be an object in the target context, and will
+inherit from its global `Object` class. Objects passed to the
+[`port.onmessage()`][] listener will also be created in the target context
+and inherit from its global `Object` class.
+
+However, the created `MessagePort` will no longer inherit from
+[`EventEmitter`][], and only [`port.onmessage()`][] can be used to receive
+events using it.
