When running the REPL as standalone program it's now possible to use
`process.on('uncaughtException', listener)`. It is going to use those
listeners from now on and the regular error output is suppressed.
It also fixes the issue that REPL instances started inside of an
application would silence all application errors. It is now prohibited
to add the exception listener in such REPL instances. Trying to add
such listeners throws an `ERR_INVALID_REPL_INPUT` error.

This makes sure that the described default behavior for the
`terminal` option is actually always used and not only when running
the REPL as standalone program.
The options code is now logically combined instead of being spread
out in the big REPL constructor.

So far it was not possible to modify the inspection defaults used by
the REPL from the running instance itself. This introduces a new
property on `util.inspect` which is only used inside the REPL and which
allows to modify the used inspection defaults at any point of time.

Adds a `repl.setupHistory()` instance method so that
programmatic REPLs can also write history to a file.
This change also refactors all of the history file
management to `lib/internal/repl/history.js`, cleaning

Environment variables with empty values are not permitted on Windows. As

This method does not need to be visible to user code. It has been
undocumented since it was introduced which was perhaps v0.8.9.
The motivation for this change is that the method is simply an
implementation detail of the REPLServer behavior, and does
not need to be exposed to user code.
This change adds documentation of the method with a deprecation
warning, and a test that the method is actually documented.
