deps: backport b096c44 from upstream V8

Original commit message:

    [build] Introduce an embedder version string

    Sometimes, the embedder might want to merge a fix to an abandoned branch
    or to a supported branch but the fix is not relevant to Chromium.
    This adds a new version string that the embedder can set at compile time
    and that will be appended to the official V8 version.
    The separator must be provided in the string. For instance, to have a
    full version string like "6.0.287.53-emb.1", the embedder must set
    V8_EMBEDDER_STRING to "-emb.1".
