Embedding V8 - Forcing strict mode

[Joel Scarfone]

Is there a way from the embedder's side to force a script to be compiled in strict mode?

There's a `--use_strict` flag you can pass on the command line or
through V8::SetFlagsFromString() but it's a global setting.

If you load a script as an ES module, it's always executed in strict mode.

Last but not least, you can always prepend the script code with a
`'use strict';`. That will throw off line numbers in error messages
but you might be able to fix that by passing in a ScriptOrigin with
its line offset set to -1.
