v8 requires a lock of each thread using the vm, but if none is
explicitly is created it will implicitly create one for you. This
creates issues when trying to build modules which use v8's
multi-threading features because there's no lock to unlock.
A ReadStream constructed from an existing file descriptor failed to start
reading automatically. Avoids a userspace call to ReadStream.prototype._read().
The base64 decoder would intermittently throw an out-of-bounds exception when
the buffer in `buf.write('', 'base64')` was a zero-sized buffer located at the
end of the slab.
Fixes#2657.
Honor the length argument in `buf.write(s, 0, buf.length, 'base64')`. Before
this commit, the length argument was ignored. The decoder would keep writing
until it hit the end of the buffer. Since most buffers in Node are slices of
a parent buffer (the slab), this bug would overwrite the content of adjacent
buffers.
The bug is trivially demonstrated with the following test case:
var assert = require('assert');
var a = Buffer(3);
var b = Buffer('xxx');
a.write('aaaaaaaa', 'base64');
assert.equal(b.toString(), 'xxx');
This commit coincidentally also fixes a bug where Buffer._charsWritten was not
updated for zero length buffers.

When using isolate the .fork would break because it had
no .disconnect method. This remove the exit handler there
would call .disconnect since it was not required.
It also change .disconnect to throw if the channel is closed,
this was not possible before because .disconnect would be called
twice.
defines cannot be used if the callback is a templated and has
multiple template arguments. The comma separating the arguments
breaks the preprocessor argument handling. Using a templated function
is clearer and more idiomatic in c++.
If a timer callback throws and the user's uncaughtException handler ignores the
exception, other timers that expire on the current tick should still run.
If #2582 goes through, this hack should be removed.
Fixes#2631.
