There are a number of intermittent failures in test-weak-set.js due to the gc() call taking too long, so I think that we should do at least three things here:

1) remove the unnecessary test loaders in this file, to reduce overall memory usage before calling gc() (and to make the tests easier to read)
2) combine all of the tests, so that only one gc() call is made.
3) make an assertion call every 30secs until the gc() call has completed.

Looks good, but we should probably just use native weak set for this module

WeakSet is not iterable.
