Using let in for loops showed a regression in 4.4.0. @ofrobots
suggested that we avoid using let in for loops until TurboFan becomes
the default optimiser.
The regression that was detected was when looking at how long it took
to create a new buffer from an array of data.
When using `for (let i=0; i<length; i++) ` we saw the operation take
almost 40% longer compared to `var i=0`.

Currently we use `{}` for the `lookup` function to find the relevant
resolver to the dns.resolve function. It is preferable to use an
object without a Object.prototype, currently for example you can do
something like:
```js
dns.resolve("google.com", "toString", console.log);
```
And get `[Object undefined]` logged and the callback would never be
called. This is unexpected and strange behavior in my opinion.
In addition, if someone adds a property to `Object.prototype` might
also create unexpected results.
This pull request fixes it, with it an appropriate error is thrown.

Based on the conversation in #4243 this implements a way to increase
and decrease the size of the thread pool used in v8.
Currently v8 restricts the thread pool size to `kMaxThreadPoolSize`
which at this commit is (4). So it is only possible to
decrease the thread pool size at the time of this commit. However with
changes upstream this could change at a later date.
If set to 0 then v8 would choose an appropriate size of the thread pool
based on the number of online processors.

[Diffie-Hellman](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffie%E2%80%93Hellman_key_exchange#Cryptographic_explanation)
keys are composed of a `generator` a `prime` a `secret_key`
and the `public_key` resulting from the math operation:
```
(generator ^ secret_key) mod prime = public_key
```
Diffie-Hellman keypairs will compute a matching shared secret
if and only if the generator and prime match for both
recipients. The generator is usually **2** and the prime is
what is called a [Safe Prime](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safe_prime).
Usually this matching is accomplished by using
[standard published groups](http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3526).
We expose access those groups with the `crypto.getDiffieHellman`
function.
`createDiffieHellman` is trickier to use. The original example
had the user creating 11 bit keys, and creating random groups of
generators and primes. 11 bit keys are very very small, can be
cracked by a single person on a single sheet of paper. A
byproduct of using such small keys were that it was a high
likelihood that two calls of `createDiffieHellman(11)` would
result in using the same 11 bit safe prime.
The original example code would fail when the safe primes generated
at 11 bit lengths did not match for alice and bob.
If you want to use your own generated safe `prime` then the proper
use of `createDiffieHellman` is to pass the `prime` and `generator`
to the recipient's constructor, so that when they compute the shared
secret their `prime` and `generator` match, which is fundamental to
the algorithm.

It turns out that there are uses in the modules ecosystem that rely
on the ability to create buffers with unaligned pointers (e.g.
node-ffi).
It turns out there is a simpler solution possible here. As a side
effect this also removes the need to have to reserve the first
