Add a flag to disable the weak references implementation by default.
The main point of this is to hide the weak references APIs from JS; we can still make changes to GC machinery non-configurable.

I was originally thinking of making this a built-time configure flag, but it would be simpler to make this a pref. This would also make it easier for people to experiment with it.
I'm proposing calling this javascript.options.weakrefs.

No, this is shell only for the moment. Sorry for the confusion.
