Subject: [PATCH] build: build v8 with -fvisibility=hidden

V8 should be built with -fvisibility=hidden, otherwise
the resulting binary would contain unnecessary symbols. In
particular, on macOS, this leads to 5000+ weak symbols
resolved at runtime, leading to a startup regression.

On macOS this also reduces the binary size about ~10MB.
On Linux the size reduction is around 8MB.
