Currently we include instructions on how to check the sha of a
downloaded tar-ball, but do not include instruction on how to
get the `SHA256.txt` file. This has led to confusion with people
thinking that the SHA256.txt is included in that tarball.
This commit includes instructions on how to use curl to download the
`SHA256.txt` prior to the instructions on how to verify the sha.

Do not convert typed arrays to `Buffer` for deepEqual since
their values may not be accurately represented by 8-bit ints.
Instead perform binary comparison of underlying `ArrayBuffer`s,
but only when the array types match.
Never apply any kind of optimization for floating-point typed
arrays since bit pattern equality is not the right kind of check
for them.

`test-stdtout-close-unref.js` will fail if `process.stdin._handle` does
not exist. On UNIX-like operating systems, you can see this failure this
way:
./node test/parallel/test-stdout-close-unref.js < /dev/null
This issue has been experienced by @bengl and @drewfish in a Docker
container. I'm not sure why they are experiencing it in their
environment, but since it is possible that the `_handle` property does
not exist, let's use `child_process.spawn()` to make sure it exists.

Note that the `var self = this` in the _request is intentioanlly
left in place since it is not trivial to refactor it and the current
pattern isn't bad given the use case.

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.

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 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`.
