src: run native immediates during Environment cleanup #30666

This is a fix for #30643 that is, unfortunately, a bit more complex than I’d like. The last commit message provides an alternative, so if anyone prefers then I’d probably implement that first as quick fix for the flaky test and then rebase this PR against it.


src: keep object alive in stream_pipe code

This was overlooked in a489583.

Refs: #30374

src: add more can_call_into_js() guards

This is in preparation for running native SetImmediate()
callbacks during shutdown.

src: no SetImmediate from destructor in stream_pipe code

Guard against running SetImmediate() from the destructor.
The object will not be alive or usable in the callback,
so it does not make sense to attempt to schedule the
SetImmediate().

src: run native immediates during Environment cleanup

This can be necessary, because some parts of the Node.js code base
perform cleanup operations in the Immediate callbacks, e.g. HTTP/2.

This resolves flakiness in an HTTP/2 test that failed when a
SetImmediate() callback was not run or destroyed before the
Environment destructor started, because that callback held a
strong reference to the Http2Session object and the expectation
was that no such objects exist once the Environment constructor
starts.

Another, slightly more direct, alternative would have
been to clear the immediate queue rather than to run it. However,
this approach seems to make more sense as code generally assumes
that the SetImmediate() callback will always run; For example,
N-API uses an immediate callback to call buffer finalization
callbacks.

Unref’ed immediates are skipped, as the expectation is generally
that they may not run anyway.

Fixes: #30643

LGTM. I imagine this might also fix other infrequent and hard-to-reproduce crashes that have started showing up recently.
