James M Snell 4f2e372716 test: add common.noop, default for common.mustCall()
Export a new common.noop no-operation function for general use.
Allow using common.mustCall() without a fn argument to simplify
test cases.

Replace various non-op functions throughout tests with common.noop

## Common module API
The common.js module is used by tests for consistency across repeated
tasks. It has a number of helpful functions and properties to help with
writing tests.
### allowGlobals(...whitelist)
* `whitelist` [&lt;Array>](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array) Array of Globals
* return [&lt;Array>](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array)
Takes `whitelist` and concats that with predefined `knownGlobals`.
### arrayStream
A stream to push an array into a REPL
### busyLoop(time)
* `time` [&lt;Number>](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Data_structures#Number_type)
Blocks for `time` amount of time.
### canCreateSymLink
API to indicate whether the current running process can create
symlinks. On Windows, this returns false if the process running
doesn't have privileges to create symlinks (specifically
[SeCreateSymbolicLinkPrivilege](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/bb530716(v=vs.85).aspx)).
On non-Windows platforms, this currently returns true.
### ddCommand(filename, kilobytes)
* return [&lt;Object>](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Object)
Platform normalizes the `dd` command
### enoughTestMem
* return [&lt;Boolean>](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Data_structures#Boolean_type)
Check if there is more than 1gb of total memory.
### expectsError(settings)
* `settings` [&lt;Object>](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Object)
with the following optional properties:
* `code` [&lt;String>](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Data_structures#String_type)
expected error must have this value for its `code` property
* `type` [&lt;Function>](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Function)
expected error must be an instance of `type`
* `message` [&lt;String>](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Data_structures#String_type)
or [&lt;RegExp>](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/RegExp)
if a string is provided for `message`, expected error must have it for its
`message` property; if a regular expression is provided for `message`, the
regular expression must match the `message` property of the expected error
* return function suitable for use as a validation function passed as the second
argument to `assert.throws()`
The expected error should be [subclassed by the `internal/errors` module](https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/master/doc/guides/using-internal-errors.md#api).
