src: fix cppgc incompatibility in v8

This patch updates the layout of the BaseObjects to make sure
that the first embedder field of them is a "type" pointer, the
first 16 bits of which are the Node.js embedder ID, so that
cppgc will always skip over them. In addition we now use this
field to determine if the native object should be interpreted
as a Node.js embedder object in the serialization and deserialization
callbacks for the startup snapshot to improve the reliability.
