Notable changes:
* assert:
* If the validation function passed to `assert.throws()` or
`assert.rejects()` returns a value other than `true`, an assertion
error will be thrown instead of the original error to highlight the
programming mistake (Ruben Bridgewater).
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/28263
* If a constructor function is passed to validate the instance of

* build:
* Node.js releases are now built with default full-icu support. This

Intl-related APIs may return different values than before
(Richard Lau).
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/29887
* The minimum Xcode version supported for macOS was increased to 10.
It is still possible to build Node.js with Xcode 8 but this may no
longer be the case in a future v13.x release (Michael Dawson).
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/29622
* child_process:
* `ChildProcess._channel` (DEP0129) is now a Runtime deprecation

https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/27949
* console:
* The output `console.timeEnd()` and `console.timeLog()` will now
automatically select a suitable time unit instead of always using
milliseconds (Xavier Stouder).
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/29251
* deps:
* The V8 engine was updated to version 7.8. This includes performance
improvements to object destructuring, memory usage and WebAssembly
startup time (Myles Borins).
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/29694)
* domain:
* The domain's error handler is now executed with the active domain
set to the domain's parent to prevent inner recursion
(Julien Gilli).
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/26211
* fs:
* The undocumented method `FSWatcher.prototype.start()` was removed
(Lucas Holmquist).
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/29905
* Calling the `open()` method on a `ReadStream` or `WriteStream` now
emits a runtime deprecation warning. The methods are supposed to be
internal and should not be called by user code (Robert Nagy).
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/29061
* `fs.read/write`, `fs.readSync/writeSync` and `fd.read/write` now

`offset` is also no longer coerced, so a valid type must be passed
to the functions (Zach Bjornson).

* Aborted requests no longer emit the `end` or `error` events after
`aborted` (Robert Nagy).

* Data will no longer be emitted after a socket error (Robert Nagy).
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/28711
* The legacy HTTP parser (previously available under the
`--http-parser=legacy` flag) was removed (Anna Henningsen).
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/29589
* The `host` option for HTTP requests is now validated to be a string

* http, http2:
* The default server timeout was removed (Ali Ijaz Sheikh).

* Brought 425 status code name into accordance with RFC 8470. The name
changed from "Unordered Collection" to "Too Early" (Sergei Osipov).
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/29880
* lib:
* The `error.errno` property will now always be a number. To get the
string value, use `error.code` instead (Joyee Cheung).
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/28140
* module:
* `module.createRequireFromPath()` is deprecated. Use
`module.createRequire()` instead (cjihrig).
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/27951
* src:
* Changing the value of `process.env.TZ` will now clear the tz cache.
This affects the default time zone used by methods such as
`Date.prototype.toString` (Ben Noordhuis).
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/20026
* stream:
* The timing and behavior of streams was consolidated for a number of
edge cases. Please look at the individual commits below for more
information.

common.skipIfInspectorEnabled() is only used once in all of the tests.
The test is more clear (in my opinion, at least) without the abstraction
so put the check directly in the test. Additionally, it honestly looks

someone mistyped the far more common skipIfInspectorDisabled().

Since worker threads are complete Node.js environments, including the
ability to load native addons, and since those native addons can
allocate resources to be freed when objects go out of scope, and since,
upon worker thread exit, the engine does not invoke the weak callbacks
responsible for freeing resources which still have references, this
modification introduces tracking for weak references such that a list
of outstanding weak references is maintained. This list is traversed
during environment teardown. The callbacks for the remaining weak
references are called.
This change is also relevant for Node.js embedder scenarios, because in
those cases the process also outlives the `node::Environment` and
therefore weak callbacks should also be rendered as environment cleanup
hooks to ensure proper cleanup after native addons. This changes
introduces the means by which this can be accomplished.
A benchmark is included which measures the time it takes to execute the
weak reference callback for a given number of weak references.
