4eb9365d66 doc: replace methods used in the example code
Methods `buf.writeUIntLE()` and `buf.writeUIntBE()` were used

`writeIntLE()` and `writeIntBE()` instead of the latter.

ed21cb1774 util: implement WHATWG Encoding Standard API
Provide an (initially experimental) implementation of the WHATWG Encoding
Standard API (`TextDecoder` and `TextEncoder`). The is the same API
implemented on the browser side.

By default, with small-icu, only the UTF-8, UTF-16le and UTF-16be decoders
are supported. With full-icu enabled, every encoding other than iso-8859-16
is supported.

This provides a basic test, but does not include the full web platform
tests. Note: many of the web platform tests for this would fail by default
because we ship with small-icu by default.

A process warning will be emitted on first use to indicate that the
API is still experimental. No runtime flag is required to use the
feature.

2017-07-19, Version 8.2.0 (Current)
Big thanks to @addaleax who prepared the vast majority of this release.

Notable changes:

* **Async Hooks**
  * Multiple improvements to Promise support in `async_hooks` have been made.

* **Build**
  * The compiler version requirement to build Node with GCC has been raised to
    GCC 4.9.4.

    [#13466](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/13466)

* **Cluster**
  * Users now have more fine-grained control over the inspector port used by
    individual cluster workers. Previously, cluster workers would simply
    increment from the master's debug port.
    [[`dfc46e262a`](https://github.com/nodejs/node/commit/dfc46e262a)]
    [#14140](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/14140)

* **npm**
  * The `npm` CLI has been updated to version 5.3.0. In particular, it now comes
    with the `npx` binary, which is also shipped with Node.

buffer: allow Uint8Array input to methods
Allow all methods on `buffer` and `Buffer` to take `Uint8Array`
arguments where it makes sense. On the native side, there is
effectively no difference, and as a bonus the `isUint8Array`
check is faster than `instanceof Buffer`.

doc: do not link in the headings
If there is a link in the headings, when the ToC is generated, that is
not properly linked and the square brackets are left as they are.

Even if we fix this, different parts of the heading will link to
different sections or even different pages. For example,

    ### What makes [`Buffer.allocUnsafe()`] and
          [`Buffer.allocUnsafeSlow()`] "unsafe"?

will point to three different sections. `allocUnsafe` and
`allocUnsafeSlow` will link to their corresponding sections and all
other words actually link to the heading in the document. This could be
visually confusing.
