Throughout the docs, we sometimes write the possessive of _Node.js_ as
_Node.js'_ and other times as _Node.js's_. The former conforms with some
generally accepted style guides (e.g., Associated Press Stylebook) while
the latter complies with others (e.g., Chicago Manual of Style).
Since there is no clear authoritative answer as to which form is
correct, and since (at least to me) both are visually jarring and
sometimes cause a pause to understand, I'd like to reword things to
eliminate the possessive form where possible.
This is one of those examples.

The use of dashes -- in general, but especially in our docs -- can be
problematic. It is used inconsistently and there is always another form
of punctuation that is as good or better for the situation. In an effort
to reduce the number of variations we use to display the same types of
information, remove the various uses of dashes from the documentation.

This is the document formation, because `node` is a command to be

The tests in `test/debugger` all fail since the removal of the
pre-inspector debugger (if they weren't already failing). They do not
run in CI (probably because they were never reliable). Remove them and
associated fixtures.

Node now supports the `--inspect-brk` flag, which does the same thing
as `--inspect --debug-brk`. One thing that's nice about the new flag is
that it uses "inspect" language -- this is a suggested update to the
docs.

This commit adds support for trace-event tracing to Node.js. It provides
a mechanism to centralize tracing information generated by V8, Node
core, and userspace code. It includes:
- A trace writer responsible for serializing traces and cycling the
output files so that no individual file becomes to large.
- A buffer for aggregating traces to allow for batched flushes.
- An agent which initializes the tracing controller and ensures that
trace serialization is done on a separate thread.
- A set of macros for generating trace events.
- Tests and documentation.

The doc says the debugger is and also isn't full-featured. Even if the
sentences are talking about different things, it's confusing.
`full-featured` seems superfluous in the first sentence anyway, so
remove it. Remove a superfluous `simple` while we're at it.

This change introduces experimental v8-inspector support. This brings
the DevTools debug protocol allowing Node.js to be debugged with
Chrome DevTools native, or through other debuggers supporting that
protocol.
Partial WebSocket support, to the extent required by DevTools, is
included. This is derived from the implementation in Blink.
v8-inspector support can be disabled by the --without-inspector
configure flag.
