src: refactor `BaseObject` internal field management

- Instead of storing a pointer whose type refers to the specific
  subclass of `BaseObject`, just store a `BaseObject*` directly.
  This means in particular that one can cast to classes along
  the way of the inheritance chain without issues, and that
  `BaseObject*` no longer needs to be the first superclass
  in the case of multiple inheritance.

  In particular, this renders hack-y solutions to this problem (like
  ddc19be6de1ba263d9c175b2760696e7b9918b25) obsolete and addresses
  a `TODO` comment of mine.

- Move wrapping/unwrapping methods to the `BaseObject` class.
  We use these almost exclusively for `BaseObject`s, and I hope
  that this gives a better idea of how (and for what) these are used
  in our code.

- Perform initialization/deinitialization of the internal field
  in the `BaseObject*` constructor/destructor. This makes the code
  a bit more obviously correct, avoids explicit calls for this
  in subclass constructors, and in particular allows us to avoid
  crash situations when we previously called `ClearWrap()`
  during GC.

  This also means that we enforce that the object passed to the
  `BaseObject` constructor needs to have an internal field.
  This is the only reason for the test change.

- Change the signature of `MakeWeak()` to not require a pointer
  argument. Previously, this would always have been the same
  as `this`, and no other value made sense. Also, the parameter
  was something that I personally found somewhat confusing
  when becoming familiar with Node’s code.

- Add a `TODO` comment that motivates switching to real inheritance
  for the JS types we expose from the native side. This patch
  brings us a lot closer to being able to do that.

- Some less significant drive-by cleanup.

Since we *effectively* already store the `BaseObject*` pointer
anyway since ddc19be6de1ba263d9c175b2760696e7b9918b25, I do not
think that this is going to have any impact on diagnostic tooling.
