isolates refactor: this change introduces 'dart:isolate' as a library. This is a

I would prefer if we did not move this VM specific implementation out of the
runtime directory into this new 'lib/runtime' directory.

Currently all VM specific stuff is localized under 'runtime' and we have
followed a pattern that any code outside of that will use the dart API to access
the VM.

With your new organization we would have code outside the 'runtime' directory
that accesses the VM internals directly.

Done. I moved this back under runtime/lib/
