It's possible to construct a typed array from a buffer but the buffer
is treated as an array, not a byte array as one might expect.
Fixes#7786.

This features comes from the need of adding extra options when displaying
the object using console.dir().
console.dir() accepts now a second parameter that is passed to util.inspect()
in order to provide extra options to the output. These options are: depth, color
and showHidden. More information about these options in util.inspect() documentation.

Slashes should be documented, because 3rd-party protocols -- those
postfixed with `://` -- would incorrectly `format` and `parse` if they
didn't set/get the `slashes` option.

Adds a section to the transform stream docs to clarify the
difference between the `end` event and the `finish` events.
Also clarifies the wording on the `end` event.
When close() is called on a non-listening server, a synchronous
error is thrown. This commit causes the error to be passed to
the asynchronous callback function instead.

A recent change to v8's API now makes it impossible to memcpy to a
v8::ArrayBuffer without causing it to be externalized. This means that
the garbage collector will not automatically free the memory when the
object is collected.
When/If the necessary API is included to allow the above
Buffer#toArrayBuffer() will be reintroduced.

This commit introduces `readableObjectMode` and
`writableObjectMode` options for Duplex streams.
This can be used mostly to make parsers and
serializers with Transform streams.
Also the docs section about stream state objects
is removed, because it is not relevant anymore.
The example from the section is remade to show
new options.

compare() works like String.localeCompare such that:
Buffer.compare(a, b) === a.compare(b);
equals() does a native check to see if two buffers are equal.

Forcibly flushes the request headers. You need this with long-lived
HTTP connections where the first data isn't written until the connection
has been established (think: tunneling requests over HTTP CONNECT.)

Introduce new signature for both `dgram.createSocket` method and
`dgram.Socket` constructor:
dgram.createSocket(options, [listener])
Options should contain `type` property and may contain `reuseAddr`
property. When `reuseAddr` is `true` - SO_REUSEADDR will be issued on
socket on bind.

This prevents segfaults when a native method is reassigned to a
different object (which corrupts args.This()). When unwrapping,
clients should use args.Holder() instead of args.This().
Closes#6690.

Move `createCredentials` to `tls` module and rename it to
`createSecureContext`. Make it use default values from `tls` module:
`DEFAULT_CIPHERS` and `DEFAULT_ECDH_CURVE`.
fix#7249
The `Agent#request()` function was removed in
f3189ace6b, so don't
use it in the documentation example. The function
wasn't documented in the first place.
V8 was upgraded from 3.22 to 3.24 in commit 1c7bf24. Upgrade source
files in test/addons/ and automatically generated tests from
doc/api/addons.markdown to the new V8 API.
This coincidentally fixes a bug in src/node_object_wrap.h where it was
still using the old V8 weak persistent handle interface, which is gone
in 3.24.
Expose localPort for binding to a specific port for outbound
connections.
If localAddress is not specified '0.0.0.0' is used for ip4 and '::'
for ip6 connections.
Fixes#7092
This implements the user-facing APIs that lets one run a child process
and block until it exits.
Logic shared with the async counterpart of each function was refactored
to enable code reuse.
Docs and tests are included.
