Route aliased V8 constructors through constructor-specific exports. Direct new v8.Serializer() syntax bypasses nm_dispatch_v8, but the constructor metadata omits all five V8 classes. An aliased call such as const S = v8.Serializer; new S() therefore fails the metadata check with TypeError: is not a constructor. Add dedicated constructor handling that invokes the native constructor instead of the bound-method path.

Calling several class exports from
node:v8as ordinary functions currently returnsundefined, while Node throws aTypeError. This change rejects direct calls toSerializer,Deserializer,DefaultSerializer,DefaultDeserializer, andGCProfiler, preserving Node's distinction between the coded serializer errors and the uncoded default/profiler errors. Construction withnewcontinues through the existing dedicated code-generation paths.Relates to #9202.
