webassembly/proxy_js: Create a special "undefined" type for Python.

This adds a new undefined singleton to Python, that corresponds directly to
JavaScript `undefined`.  It's accessible via `js.undefined`.

+Type conversions
+----------------
+
+Read-only objects (booleanns, numbers, strings, etc) are converted when passed between
+Python and JavaScript.  The conversions are:
+
+- JavaScript `null` converts to/from Python `None`.
+- JavaScript `undefined` converts to/from Python `js.undefined`.
+
+The conversion between `null` and `None` matches the behaviour of the Python `json`
+module.
