This changes the code blocks from 4-space indentation to ``` fences for
better syntax highlighting and future linting support. Minor On-the-fly
changes for typos and highlight breaking markdown have been made.
JSON-Style objects have been changed so their closing bracket is
on the same line as the opening one.
Known issues:
* Not every JSON / object notation has been improved. Should
make another run for this.
* Some example functions break hightlighting due to various
combinations of brackets. However changing them means leaving
the code style.

The docs were recently refactored, and some "above" and "below"
references were no longer accurate. This commit removes many
such references, and replaces others with links.

Make the win32 and posix versions of path.format() consistent in when
they add a directory separator between the dir and base parts of the
path (always add it unless the dir part is the same as the root).
Also, path.format() is now more functional in that it uses the name
and ext parts of the path if the base part is left out and it uses
the root part if the dir part is left out.

Adding an additional example to path.extname documentation
to demonstrate the case where the first character of the last
path component is '.'. This case is interesting, as something
like path.extname('.txt') returns an empty string. In this
case, .txt can be used as a valid file name (while arguably
maintaining an extension). I agree with Node's behavior in this
case, but I think the added example provides additional clarity
for the developer.

The path module's `join, normalize, isAbsolute, relative and resolve`
functions return/use the current directory if they are passed zero
length strings.

Since empty paths are not valid in any of the operating systems people
normally use, this behaviour might be a surprise to the users. This
commit introduces "Notes" about this, wherever applicable in `path`'s
documentation.
The tests makes sure that the behaviour is intact between
commits.

The parse() function splits a path and returns an object
with the different elements. The format() function is the
reverse of this and adds an objects corresponding path
elements to make up a string. Fixes #6976.

The parameter parser specifically looked for the old bracket syntax.
This generated a lot of warnings when building the docs. Those warnings
have been fixed by changing the parsing logic.

Documentation incorrectly used bracket notation for optional parameters.
This caused inconsistencies in usage because of examples like the
following:
fs.write(fd, data[, position[, encoding]], callback)
This simply fixes all uses of bracket notation in documentation.

An absolute path will always open the same location regardless of your
current working directory. For posix, this just means path.charAt(0) ===
'/', but on Windows it's a little more complicated.
Fixes joyent/node#5299.
`path.exists*` functions show a deprecation warning and call functions
from `fs`. They should be removed later.
test: fix references to `path.exists*` in tests
test fs: add test for `fs.exists` and `fs.existsSync`
doc: reflect moving `path.exists*` to `fs`
Mostly quite minor edits. Those possibly of more interest are:
emitter.setMaxListeners(n)
That the limit is per event name for an emitter.
fs.readlink()
Not a path, but rather the symbolic link's string value, which
would be at best a partial path, certainly not a 'resolvedPath'
global.__filename
This may be "well-known" but this is a full path to the module
that referencing code is running in. It is not the main program's
path, unless you are in the main program. Each module knows only
its own path.
server.listen(port,...)
I actually needed this functionality... "gimme just _any_ next port"
stream.end()
stream.destroy()
Yeah, everybody knows what happens to the queued data, but let's
make it *really* explicit for the first readers.
