8ab8c33985 n-api: enable napi_wrap() to work with any object
Previously, napi_wrap() would only work with objects created from a
constructor returned by napi_define_class(). While the N-API team
was aware of this limitation, it was not clearly documented and is
likely to cause confusion anyway. It's much simpler if addons are
allowed to use any JS object. Also, the specific behavior of the
limitation is difficult to reimplement on other VMs that work
differently from V8.

V8 requires object internal fields to be declared on the object
prototype (which napi_define_class() used to do). Since it's too
late to modify the object prototype by the time napi_wrap() is
called, napi_wrap() now inserts a new object (with the internal
field) into the supplied object's prototype chain. Then it can be
retrieved from there later by napi_unwrap().

This change also includes improvements to the documentation for
napi_create_external(), partly to explain how it is different from
napi_wrap().

2e3fef7628 n-api: Handle fatal exception in async callback
- Create a handle scope before invoking the async completion
   callback, because it is basically always needed, easy for user
   code to forget, and this makes it more consistent with ordinary
   N-API function callbacks.

 - Check for an unhandled JS exception after invoking an async
   completion callback, and report it via `node::FatalException()`.

 - Add a corresponding test case for an exception in async callback.

Previously, any unhandled JS exception thrown from a
`napi_async_complete_callback` would be silently ignored. Among other
things this meant assertions in some test cases could be undetected.
