In the V8 bindings, we should inform V8 of the amount of WebCore data we are keeping alive in the form of external strings. This will give V8 a chance to release some of those resources.

Of course, this is only an approximation and if the same String gets added to v8 more than once, then the external memory will be artificially high.
