af70c3b478 n-api: optimize number API performance
- Add separate APIs for creating different kinds of numbers,
   because creating a V8 number value from an integer is faster
   than creating one from a double.
 - When getting number values, avoid getting the current context
   because the context will not actually be used and is expensive
   to obtain.
 - When creating values, don't use v8::TryCatch (NAPI_PREAMBLE),
   because these functions have no possibility of executing JS code.

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.

d5b397c9b6 n-api: Implement stricter wrapping
Use a stronger criterion to identify objects in the prototype chain that store
pointers to native data that were added by previous calls to `napi_wrap()`.

Whereas the old criterion for identifying `napi_wrap()`-injected prototype
chain objects was to consider an object with an internal field
count of 1 to be such an object, the new criterion is to consider an object
with an internal field count of 2 such that the second field holds a
`v8::External` which itself contains a pointer to a global static string unique
to N-API to be a `napi_wrap()`-injected prototype chain object.

This greatly reduces the possibility of returning a pointer that was not
previously added with `napi_wrap()`, and it allows us to recognize that an
object has already undergone `napi_wrap()` and we can thus prevent a chain of
wrappers only the first of which is accessible from appearing in the prototype
chain, as would be the result of multiple calls to `napi_wrap()` using the same
object.

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.
