DevTools: Parallelize trace messages serialization.

Move serialization into a worker thread. As a result
IO thread will be able to send messages to the browser.

The original implementation did serialization on IO thread
and was not able to send the messages because ipc had
is_blocked_on_write_ = true and had no chance to check
the actual state of the channel. So the messages were
collected in output_queue. Also the messages could be quite
big and could block the IO thread for a long time.
