The example code is from https://github.com/v8/v8/blob/ee74e718339223345b42935e9f4cbc7be208e557/include/v8-value.h#L355-L361

In v8's source code, they use local handles rather than Local/Handles.

I think Local is essentially equivalent to Handle. The difference of them is Local is an outer api and Handle is an inner api.
So we can simplify the doc by omitting the Local.

| We can cast from a subtype to a supertype using Local::Cast: | ||
| ```c++ | ||
| v8::Local<v8::Number> nr = v8::Local<v8::Number>(v8::Number::New(isolate_, 12)); | ||
| v8::Local<v8::Number> nr = v8::Number::New(isolate_, 12); |

Since v8::Number::New return v8::Local<v8::Number>, we can remove unnecessary type conversion.
