this creates a new internal module responsible for providing
the repl created via "iojs" or "iojs -i," and adds the following
options to the readline and repl subsystems:
* "repl mode" - determine whether a repl is strict mode, sloppy mode,
or auto-detect mode.
* historySize - determine the maximum number of lines a repl will store
as history.
The built-in repl gains persistent history support when the
NODE_REPL_HISTORY_FILE environment variable is set. This functionality
is not exposed to userland repl instances.

This simplifies the stability index to 4 levels:
0 - deprecated
1 - experimental / feature-flagged
2 - stable
3 - locked
Domains has been downgraded to deprecated, assert has been
downgraded to stable. Timers and Module remain locked. All
other APIs are now stable.

The docs for readLine.pause are misleading. I seriously spent hours on this. If
it isn't a bug, at least it should be well documented.
Someone else stumbled on this too:

Passing null as the output stream to readline.Interface()'s constructor
is now supported. Any output written by readline is just discarded. It
makes it easier to use readline just as a line parser.

Documentation incorrectly used bracket notation for optional parameters.
This caused inconsistencies in usage because of examples like the
following:
fs.write(fd, data[, position[, encoding]], callback)
This simply fixes all uses of bracket notation in documentation.

The overall goal here is to make readline more interoperable with other node
Streams like say a net.Socket instance, in "terminal" mode.
See #2922 for all the details.
Closes#2922.
Bugfix and update.
- Fixed bug where Node's REPL wouldn't continue when returning from ^Z
(SIGTSTP)
- Removed old readline callback
Readline API update with docs.
- ^Z (SIGTSTP) is now bypassed on Windows systems.
- SIGCONT is now bypassed on Windows systems.
- Docs updated to reflect above.
- Removed extra newline from .question(); Users can input a
newline if it they require it.
- Removed .close() due to it only emulating closing, causing a bug where
readline is left open to trigger events such as .on('line', ...').
- Removed ._attemptClose()
- .pause() now triggers event .on('pause', ...)
- .resume() now triggers event .on('resume', ...)
- CTRL-C (SIGINT) in readline will now default to .pause() if no SIGINT event
is present.
- CTRL-D (delete right) will also default to .pause() if there is nothing to
delete (signaling the end of the file).
- Added new event `SIGTSTP`
- Added new event `SIGCONT`
- Added `resume` to `write` to resume the stream if paused.
- Docs updated.
- Updated repl.js
