As per the discussion in
https://github.com/nodejs/io.js/pull/2093#discussion_r34343965, this
patch documents the behavior of calling fs.watchFile() with a path that
does not yet exist.
This patch also includes a test which checks if a file not present, the
callback is invoked at least once and if the file is created after
the callback is invoked, it will be invoked again with new stat
objects.

When an Object is printed in REPL, the actual representation can be
overriden by defining `inspect` method on the objects. This patch
includes a note about the same in the REPL documentation.

Since empty paths are not valid in any of the operating systems people
normally use, this behaviour might be a surprise to the users. This
commit introduces "Notes" about this, wherever applicable in `path`'s
documentation.
The tests makes sure that the behaviour is intact between
commits.

Calling v8.setFlagsFromString with e.g a function as a flag argument
gave no exception or warning that the function call will fail.
There is now an exception if the function gets called with the wrong
flag type (string is required) or that a flag is expected.
Other APIs already provide exceptions if the argument has not the
expected type.

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.
