[DevTools] Use Owner Stacks to Implement View Source of a Server Component (#30798)
We don't have the source location of Server Components on the client
because we don't want to eagerly do the throw trick for all Server
Components just in case. Unfortunately Node.js doesn't expose V8's API
to get a source location of a function.
We do have the owner stacks of the JSX that created it though and at
some point we'll also show that location in DevTools.
However, the realization is that if a Server Component is the owner of
any child. The owner stack of that child will have the owner component's
source location as its bottom stack frame.
The technique I'm implementing here is to track whenever a child mounts
we already have its owner. We track the first discovered owned child's
stack on the owner. Then when we ask for a Source location of the owner
do we parse that stack and extract the location of the bottom frame.
This doesn't give us a location necessarily in the top of the function
but somewhere in the function.
In this case the first owned child is the Container:

We can even use this technique for Fibers too. Currently I use this as a
fallback in case the error technique didn't work. This covers a case
where nothing errors but you still render a child. This case is actually
quite common:
```
function Foo() {
return <Bar />;
}
```
However, for Fibers we could really just use the `inspect(function)`
technique which works for all cases. At least in Chrome.
Unfortunately, this technique doesn't work if a Component doesn't create
any new JSX but just renders its children. It also currently doesn't
work if the child is filtered since I only look up the owner if an
instance is not filtered. This means that the container in the fixture
can't view source by default since the host component is filtered:
```
export default function Container({children}) {
return <div>{children}</div>;
}
```
