want a way to find references that includes closures

[davepacheco]

findjsobjects -r is useful for finding which objects reference a particular object. However, it doesn't find references through closures. We should either extend it to include closure references or else add a separate dcmd for that.

FWIW, a while ago I had quickly put together a change to help me do that while investigating a memory leak: https://github.com/misterdjules/mdb_v8/commit/79a93c474a3e7ba1d867ce03315be2a469a88d3a. It's not pretty and it's slow, but it definitely allowed me to root cause a problem I wouldn't have been able to root cause otherwise.
