This drops exporting duplicate methods that accept FileHandle as the
first argument (to mirror callback-based methods accepting 'fd').
Those methods were not adding actual value to the API because all of
those are already present as FileHandle methods, and they would
probably be confusing to the new users and making docs harder to read.
Also, the API was a bit inconsistent and lacked .close(handle).

Problem:
Node implements fs.readFile as:
- a call to stat, then
- a C++ -> libuv request to read the entire file using the stat size
Why is this bad?
The effect is to place on the libuv threadpool a potentially-large
read request, occupying the libuv thread until it completes.
While readFile certainly requires buffering the entire file contents,
it can partition the read into smaller buffers
(as is done on other read paths)
along the way to avoid threadpool exhaustion.
If the file is relatively large or stored on a slow medium, reading
the entire file in one shot seems particularly harmful,
and presents a possible DoS vector.
Solution:
Partition the read into multiple smaller requests.
Considerations:
1. Correctness
I don't think partitioning the read like this raises
any additional risk of read-write races on the FS.
If the application is concurrently readFile'ing and modifying the file,
it will already see funny behavior. Though libuv uses preadv where
available, this doesn't guarantee read atomicity in the presence of
concurrent writes.
2. Performance
Downside: Partitioning means that a single large readFile will
require into many "out and back" requests to libuv,
introducing overhead.
Upside: In between each "out and back", other work pending on the
threadpool can take a turn.
In short, although partitioning will slow down a large request,
it will lead to better throughput if the threadpool is handling
more than one type of request.

In three fs benchmarks, a temp file is created in the source tree. For
tests, allow the location to be configurable so it gets written to the
test temp directory instead.
Additionally, shave about a second off the test running time by setting
`dur` to `0.1` instead of `1`.
