1. v8: enable maglev on supported architectures …

   Enable V8's new maglev compiler by default on supported architectures.
   This brings modest performance improvements for short-lived workloads
   like CLI programs (see the linked issue) and brings Node.js's
   configuration slightly closer to Google Chrome's.
   
   I marked this change as semver-major because Maglev can theoretically
   cause performance regressions, although I haven't seen an example of
   that in the (somewhat limited) benchmarking I've done.
   
   **Notable Change Summary:** V8's Maglev Compiler is now enabled by
   default on supported architectures (https://v8.dev/blog/maglev). Maglev
   improves CPU performance for short-lived CLI programs by around 8%.
   
   Fixes: nodejs#50690
