This PR is a WIP implementation of a vm instruction flowgraph generator
This aims to make the vm easier to debug and understand for both newcomers and experienced devs.
For example if we have the following code:
```js
let i = 0;
while (i < 10) {
if (i == 3) {
break;
}
i++;
}
```
It generates the following instructions (which is hard to read, especially jumps):

And the flow graph is generated:
The beginning of the function is marked by the `start` node (in green) and end (in red). In branching the "yes" branch is marked in green and "no" in red.
~~This only generates in [graphviz format](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DOT_(graph_description_language)) (a widely used format) but it would be nice to also generate to a format that `mermaid.js` can understand and that could be put in articles https://github.com/boa-dev/boa-dev.github.io/issues/26~~
TODO:
- [x] Generate graphviz format
- [x] Generate mermaid format
- [x] Programmatically generate colors push and pop env instructions
- [x] Display nested functions in sub-sub-graphs.
- [x] Put under a feature (`"flowgraph"`)
- [x] Handle try/catch, switch instructions
- [x] CLI option for configuring direction of flow (by default it is top down)
- [x] Handle `Throw` instruction (requires keeping track of try blocks)
- [x] Documentation
- [x] Prevent node name collisions (functions with the same name)
