perf: enable V8 builtins PGO (#50574)

* build: enable V8 builtins PGO

Removes the gn arg that disabled V8 builtins profile-guided optimization
and adds a V8 patch to warn instead of abort when the builtin PGO profile
data does not match. Also strips the PGO-related flags from the generated
mksnapshot_args so they are not passed through to downstream mksnapshot
invocations.

* docs: clarify Node.js async_hooks as reason for promise_hooks flag

Addresses review feedback: the v8_enable_javascript_promise_hooks flag
is set to support Node.js async_hooks, not used directly by Electron.

Subject: build: warn instead of abort on builtin PGO profile mismatch
Electron sets v8_enable_javascript_promise_hooks = true to support
Node.js async_hooks (see node/src/env.cc SetPromiseHooks usage:
https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/abff716eaccd0c4f4949d1315cb057a45979649d/src/env.cc#L223-L236).
This flag adds conditional branches to builtins-microtask-queue-gen.cc
and promise-misc.tq, changing the control-flow graph hash of several
Promise/async builtins. This invalidates V8's pre-generated PGO profile
for those builtins (built with Chrome defaults where the flag is off).
Rather than disabling builtins PGO entirely, warn and skip mismatched
builtins so all other builtins still benefit from PGO.
