In Streams3 the 'readable' event/.read() method had a lower precedence
than the `'data'` event that made them impossible to use them together.
This make `.resume()` a no-op if there is a listener for the

`'data'` listener.

This commit improves the SystemError messages by allowing user
to combine a custom message and the libuv error message. Also
since we now prefer use subclasses to construct the errors instead
of using `new errors.SystemError()` directly, this removes
the behavior of assigning a default error code `ERR_SYSTEM_ERROR`
to SystemError and requires the user to directly use the
`ERR_SYSTEM_ERROR` class to construct errors instead.
Also merges `makeNodeError` into the SystemError class definition
since that's the only place the function gets used and it seems
unnecessary to introduce another level of inheritance. SystemError
now directly inherits from Error instead of an intermmediate Error
class that inherits from Error.
Class hierarchy before this patch:
ERR_SOCKET_BUFFER_SIZE -> Error (use message formatted by SystemError)
ERR_SYSTEM_ERROR -> NodeError (temp) -> Error
After:
ERR_SOCKET_BUFFER_SIZE -> SystemError -> Error
ERR_TTY_INIT_FAILED -> SystemError -> Error
ERR_SYSTEM_ERROR -> SystemError -> Error
Error messages before this patch:
```
const dgram = require('dgram');
const socket = dgram.createSocket('udp4');
socket.setRecvBufferSize(8192);
// Error [ERR_SOCKET_BUFFER_SIZE]: Could not get or set buffer
// size: Error [ERR_SYSTEM_ERROR]: bad file descriptor:

Keep the introduction for Buffers and character encodings short and to
the point. The current introduction doesn't provide much in the way of
useful additional information, but it is a bit confusing in its wording.
("such as" seems like it ought to refer to "encoded characters" but it
actually refers to character encodings, which are not mentioned in the
sentence. It may be arguable as to whether "hex-encoded" is in fact a
character encoding, whether it should be stylized as "Hex-encoded" or
not, and whether it should be spelled out as "Hexadecimal-encoded". None
of that information is particularly useful to the end user at this point
in the text. Omitting it simplifies and improves the documentation.)
Additionally, the section is now wrapped to 80 characters.

This is a security release. All Node.js users should consult the
security release summary at:
https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/march-2018-security-releases/
for details on patched vulnerabilities.
Fixes for the following CVEs are included in this release:
* CVE-2018-7158
* CVE-2018-7159
* CVE-2018-7160
Notable changes:
* Upgrade to OpenSSL 1.0.2o: Does not contain any security fixes that
are known to impact Node.js.
* **Fix for inspector DNS rebinding vulnerability (CVE-2018-7160)**:
A malicious website could use a DNS rebinding attack to trick a web
browser to bypass same-origin-policy checks and allow HTTP
connections to localhost or to hosts on the local network,
potentially to an open inspector port as a debugger, therefore
gaining full code execution access. The inspector now only allows
connections that have a browser `Host` value of `localhost` or
`localhost6`.
* **Fix for `'path'` module regular expression denial of service
(CVE-2018-7158)**: A regular expression used for parsing POSIX an
Windows paths could be used to cause a denial of service if an
attacker were able to have a specially crafted path string passed
through one of the impacted `'path'` module functions.
* **Reject spaces in HTTP `Content-Length` header values
(CVE-2018-7159)**: The Node.js HTTP parser allowed for spaces inside
`Content-Length` header values. Such values now lead to rejected
connections in the same way as non-numeric values.
* **Update root certificates**: 5 additional root certificates have
been added to the Node.js binary and 30 have been removed.
* cluster:
- Add support for `NODE_OPTIONS="--inspect"` (Sameer Srivastava)
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/19165
* crypto:
- Expose the public key of a certificate (Hannes Magnusson)
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/17690
* n-api:
- Add `napi_fatal_exception` to trigger an `uncaughtException` in
JavaScript (Mathias Buus)
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/19337
* path:
- Fix regression in `posix.normalize` (Michaël Zasso)
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/19520
* stream:
- Improve stream creation performance (Brian White)
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/19401
* Added new collaborators
