At the collaborator summit in Berlin, the behaviour of
`worker.terminate()` was discussed.
In particular, switching from a callback-based to a Promise-based API
was suggested. While investigating that possibility later, it was
discovered that `.terminate()` was unintentionally synchronous up
until now (including calling its callback synchronously).
Also, the topic of its stability has been brought up. I have performed
two manual reviews of the native codebase for compatibility with
`.terminate()`, and performed some manual fuzz testing with the test
suite. At this point, bugs with `.terminate()` should, in my opinion,
be treated like bugs in other Node.js features.
(It is possible to make Node.js crash with `.terminate()` by messing
with internals and/or built-in prototype objects, but that is already
the case without `.terminate()` as well.)
This commit:
- Makes `.terminate()` an asynchronous operation.
- Makes `.terminate()` return a `Promise`.
- Runtime-deprecates passing a callback.
- Removes a warning about its stability from the documentation.
- Eliminates an unnecessary extra function from the C++ code.
A possible alternative to returning a `Promise` would be to keep the
method synchronous and just drop the callback. Generally, providing
an asynchronous API does provide us with a bit more flexibility.

Having an experimental feature behind a flag makes change
if we are expecting significant breaking changes to its API.
Since the Worker API has been essentially stable since
its initial introduction, and no noticeable doubt about
possibly not keeping the feature around has been voiced,
removing the flag and thereby reducing the barrier to experimentation,
and consequently receiving feedback on the implementation,
seems like a good idea.

Implement multi-threading support for most of the API.
Thanks to Stephen Belanger for reviewing this change in its
original form, to Olivia Hugger for reviewing the
documentation and some of the tests coming along with it,
and to Alexey Orlenko and Timothy Gu for reviewing other
parts of the tests.
