Currently, each call to execute_script or execute_async_script uses a new sandbox, so the sandbox globals are not carried over, and the only way to share state between calls is to use a property on the window object. This contaminates the page's JS context, and makes it a little more work to write tests. We should preserve globals between calls, so that this isn't necessary.

Patch looks good to me! We just need to make sure it doesn't break any of the tests
Added the newSandbox argument to execute* calls to preserve functionality with Selenium, and updated the tests.
