New API to retrieve execution Stack Trace

A new API getCallSite has been introduced to the util module. This API allows users
to retrieve the stacktrace of the current execution. Example:

const util = require('node:util');

function exampleFunction() {
  const callSites = util.getCallSite();

  console.log('Call Sites:');
  callSites.forEach((callSite, index) => {
    console.log(`CallSite ${index + 1}:`);
    console.log(`Function Name: ${callSite.functionName}`);
    console.log(`Script Name: ${callSite.scriptName}`);
    console.log(`Line Number: ${callSite.lineNumber}`);
    console.log(`Column Number: ${callSite.column}`);
  });
  // CallSite 1:
  // Function Name: exampleFunction
  // Script Name: /home/example.js
  // Line Number: 5
  // Column Number: 26

  // CallSite 2:
  // Function Name: anotherFunction
  // Script Name: /home/example.js
  // Line Number: 22
  // Column Number: 3

  // ...
}

// A function to simulate another stack layer
function anotherFunction() {
  exampleFunction();
}

anotherFunction();

Disable V8 Maglev

We have seen several crashes/unexpected JS behaviors with maglev on v22
(which ships V8 v12.4). The bugs lie in the codegen so it would be difficult for
users to work around them or even figure out where the bugs are coming from.
Some bugs are fixed in the upstream while some others probably remain.

As v22 will get stuck with V8 v12.4 as LTS, it will be increasingly difficult to
backport patches for them even if the bugs are fixed. So disable it by default
on v22 to reduce the churn and troubles for users.

Thanks to Joyee Cheung for making this work on #54384

Exposes X509_V_FLAG_PARTIAL_CHAIN to tls.createSecureContext

This releases introduces a new option to the API tls.createSecureContext. For
now on users can use tls.createSecureContext({ allowPartialTrustChain: true })
to treat intermediate (non-self-signed) certificates in the trust CA certificate
list as trusted.

Thanks to Anna Henningsen for making this work on #54790
