This commit updates events doc to describe removeListener behaviour
when it is called within a listener. An example is added to make
it more evident.
A test is also incuded to make this behaviour consistent in future
releases.

The current documentation for writable.write only specifies that the
callback is called "once the data has been fully handled". It is
ambiguous whether this means "successfully handled" and, if so,
whether the callback is called if the data can not be successfully
handled (i.e. an error occurs).
The ambiguity is not only in the documentation. The stream class
implementations differ on this point. stream.Writable invokes the
callback with any errors that occur during parameter checking or
during calls to _write. However, not all classes return all errors
to _write. zlib.Zlib does pass argument and state errors to the
_write (_transform) callback, but does not pass data errors.
http.OutgoingMessage passes argument type errors and some other types
of errors, but not all.
This inconsistency is behind issue #1746 and, I suspect, other issues
in client code which passes a callback to write.
This commit takes no position on whether the callback error behavior
should changed, but simply attempts to document the current behavior
in a way that is open to changes so that users are not caught by
surprise.

The changes to the file argument of execFile in #4504 make it appear
that execFile requires an absolute or relative path to the executable
file, when it also supports a filename which will be resolved using
$PATH. Although the example makes this clear, assuming there isn't a
node binary in $CWD, it's easy to overlook. This commit clarifies that
point.
It also updates the argument description for execFileSync to match,
since it was overlooked in #4504 and behaves identically.

* Some example functions break hightlighting due to various
