Until now, the docs stated that `process.noDeprecation` could be set
at runtime, but before any modules were loaded. That was not true,
because `lib/internal/util.js` was loaded during the process startup
process, so setting the flag at runtime was pointless.
Minimal test case:
process.noDeprecation = true;
process.EventEmitter;
This patch moves checking `process.noDeprecation` to the place where
it was actually used.

This commit replaces multiple usages of `function(){}` with ES2015
arrow functions in places it was forgotten earlier. The goal is to
make the docs more consistent since other functions were already
replaced with ES2015 arrows.
In addition, it fixes invalid syntax in modules.markdown to valid
syntax as well as remove `var self = this` pattern usages in the code
where they are now possible to avoid through arrow functions.

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.
