Ref: #8913
Reading the comment at the top of the vm.js, I think that
ContextifyScript should perhaps just be Script.

- Adds the `breakEvalOnSigint` option to `vm.runIn(This)Context`.
This uses a watchdog thread to wait for SIGINT and generally works
just like the existing `timeout` option.
- Adds a method to the existing timer-based watchdog to check if it
stopped regularly or by running into the timeout. This is used to
tell a SIGINT abort from a timer-based one.
- Adds (internal) `process._{start,stop}SigintWatchdog` methods to
start/stop the watchdog thread used by the above option manually.
This will be used in the REPL to set up SIGINT handling before
entering terminal raw mode, so that there is no time window in
which Ctrl+C fully aborts the process.

Many of the util.is*() methods used to check data types
simply compare against a single value or the result of
typeof. This commit replaces calls to these methods with
equivalent checks. This commit does not touch calls to the
more complex methods (isRegExp(), isDate(), etc.).

The copyright and license notice is already in the LICENSE file. There
is no justifiable reason to also require that it be included in every

as part of the entire package.
Turn on strict mode for the files in the lib/ directory. It helps
catch bugs and can have a positive effect on performance.

Compiles and executes source code in V8's debugger context. Provides
a programmatic way to get access to the debug object by executing:
var Debug = vm.runInDebugContext('Debug');
Fixes #7886.

Passing a filename is still supported in place of certain options
arguments, for backward-compatibility, but timeout and display-errors
are not translated since those were undocumented.
Also managed to eliminate an extra stack trace line by not calling
through the `createScript` export.
Added a few message tests to show how `displayErrors` works.
Previously, calling `vm.createContext(o)` repeatedly on the same `o`
would cause new C++ `ContextifyContext`s to be created and stored on
`o`, while the previous resident went off into leaked-memory limbo.
Now, repeatedly trying to contextify a sandbox will do nothing after
the first time.
To detect this, an independently-useful `vm.isContext(sandbox)` export
was added.
This is an important part of the repl use-case.
TODO: The arg parsing in vm.runIn*Context() is rather wonky.
It would be good to move more of that into the Script class,
and/or an options object.
As documented in #3042 and in [1], the existing vm implementation has
many problems. All of these are solved by @brianmcd's [contextify][2]
package. This commit uses contextify as a conceptual base and its code
core to overhaul the vm module and fix its many edge cases and caveats.
Functionally, this fixes #3042. In particular:
- A context is now indistinguishable from the object it is based on
(the "sandbox"). A context is simply a sandbox that has been marked
by the vm module, via `vm.createContext`, with special internal
information that allows scripts to be run inside of it.
- Consequently, items added to the context from anywhere are
immediately visible to all code that can access that context, both
inside and outside the virtual machine.
This commit also smooths over the API very slightly:
- Parameter defaults are now uniformly triggered via `undefined`, per
ES6 semantics and previous discussion at [3].
- Several undocumented and problematic features have been removed, e.g.
the conflation of `vm.Script` with `vm` itself, and the fact that
`Script` instances also had all static `vm` methods. The API is now
exactly as documented (although arguably the existence of the
`vm.Script` export is not yet documented, just the `Script` class
itself).
In terms of implementation, this replaces node_script.cc with
node_contextify.cc, which is derived originally from [4] (see [5]) but
has since undergone extensive modifications and iterations to expose
the most useful C++ API and use the coding conventions and utilities of
Node core.
The bindings exposed by `process.binding('contextify')`
(node_contextify.cc) replace those formerly exposed by
`process.binding('evals')` (node_script.cc). They are:
- ContextifyScript(code, [filename]), with methods:
- runInThisContext()
- runInContext(sandbox, [timeout])
- makeContext(sandbox)
From this, the vm.js file builds the entire documented vm module API.
node.js and module.js were modified to use this new native binding, or
the vm module itself where possible. This introduces an extra line or
two into the stack traces of module compilation (and thus into most
stack traces), explaining the changed tests.
The tests were also updated slightly, with all vm-related simple tests
consolidated as test/simple/test-vm-* (some of them were formerly
test/simple/test-script-*). At the same time they switched from
`common.debug` to `console.error` and were updated to use
`assert.throws` instead of rolling their own error-testing methods.
New tests were also added, of course, demonstrating the new
capabilities and fixes.
