* **Errors**
* Improvements have been made to `buffer` module error messages.
* The assignment of static error codes to Node.js error continues:
* `buffer`
* `child_process`
* `console`
* `crypto`
* `dns`
* `events`
* `fs`
* `http`
* `inspector`
* `net`

* `streams`
* `string_decoder`
* `timers`
* `tls`
* `url`
* `util`
* `v8`
* `zlib`
* **Child Processes**
* Errors are emitted on process nextTick.
* **Domains**
* The long-deprecated `.dispose()` method has been removed.
* **fs**
* The `fs.ReadStream` and `fs.WriteStream` classes now use `destroy()`.
* `fs` module callbacks are now invoked with an undefined context.
* **HTTP/1**
* A 400 Bad Request response will now be sent when parsing fails.
* Socket timeout will be set when the socket connects.
* A bug causing the request `'error'` event to fire twice was fixed.
* HTTP clients may now use generic `Duplex` streams in addition to `net.Socket`.
* **Intl**
* The deprecated `Intl.v8BreakIterator` has been removed.
* **Modules**
* The `require.resolve()` method now supports using custom lookup paths.
* **OS**
* The `os.EOL` property is now read-only.
* **Timers**
* `setTimeout()` will emit a warning if the timeout is larger that the maximum
32-bit unsigned integer.
After this commit, `process.versions.v8` will look like:
"6.0.287.53-node.0".
The goal is that everytime we apply a non-official patch to `deps/v8`,
we increment our own number instead of V8's patch level.
This number must be set back to 0 after major V8 updates.

An initial implementation of the Performance Timing API for Node.js.
This is the same Performance Timing API implemented by modern browsers
with a number of Node.js specific properties. The User Timing mark()
and measure() APIs are implemented, garbage collection timing, and
node startup milestone timing.
```js
const { performance } = require('perf_hooks');
performance.mark('A');
setTimeout(() => {
performance.mark('B');
performance.measure('A to B', 'A', 'B');
const entry = performance.getEntriesByName('A to B', 'measure')[0];
console.log(entry.duration);
}, 10000);
```
The implementation is at the native layer and makes use of uv_hrtime().
This should enable *eventual* integration with things like Tracing
and Inspection.
The implementation is extensible and should allow us to add new
performance entry types as we go (e.g. for measuring i/o perf,
etc).
Documentation and a test are provided.

on the Warning Error object using the `.detail` property.

State in the documentation that `uncaughtException` is not a reliable
way to restart a crashed application, and clarify that an application
may crash in ways that do not trigger this event.

The current documentation states that if run something like
`node app.js` then in our process.argv array first elements is `node`,
but actually it's `process.execPath` not `node`

OS X has a tiny 1kb hard-coded buffer size for stdout / stderr to
TTYs (terminals). Output larger than that causes chunking, which ends
up having some (very small but existent) delay past the first chunk.
That causes two problems:
1. When output is written to stdout and stderr at similar times, the
two can become mixed together (interleaved). This is especially
problematic when using control characters, such as \r. With
interleaving, chunked output will often have lines or characters erased
unintentionally, or in the wrong spots, leading to broken output.
CLI apps often extensively use such characters for things such as
progress bars.
2. Output can be lost if the process is exited before chunked writes
are finished flushing. This usually happens in applications that use
`process.exit()`, which isn't infrequent.
See https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/6980 for more info.
This became an issue as result of the Libuv 1.9.0 upgrade. A fix to
an unrelated issue broke a hack previously required for the OS X
implementation. This resulted in an unexpected behavior change in node.
The 1.9.0 upgrade was done in c3cec1eefc,
which was included in v6.0.0.
Full details of the Libuv issue that induced this are at

The fact that process.exit() interrupts pending async operations
such as non-blocking i/o is becoming a bit more pronounced with
the recent libuv update. This commit expands the documentation
for `process.exit()` to explain clearly how it affects async
operations.
