Expose gc(true) to JavaScript, which triggers a scavenger GC.

With the --expose_gc option, gc() is exposed to JavaScript. Currently gc() triggers a full GC.

To enable JavaScript to test the behavior of a scavenger GC, this patch exposes gc(true). If the first argument is true, gc(...) triggers a scavenger GC. Otherwise, gc(...) triggers a full GC.

BUG=
Test=Manually confirmed that gc() and gc(false) trigger a full GC and that gc(true) triggers a scavenger GC.
