This makes the famous `EventEmitter memory leak` warnings occurring
when the listener count for a given event exceeds a specified number
more programatically accessible, by giving them properties referring
to the event emitter instance and the event itself.
This can be useful for debugging the origins of such a warning when
the stack itself doesn’t reveal enough information about the event
emitter instance itself, e.g. when manual inspection of the
already-registered listeners is expected to be useful.

Use blockquotes instead of code blocks for stability markers in

- Makes the makers appear correctly when viewed e.g. on github.

Addresses #5566. The `ee.once()` function is currently documented as
invoking the listener, and then removing it when the event is
triggered. However, this is not really the case. The listener is removed
and _then_ invoked. This only matters in a narrow set of use cases, but
when it matters, it matters that the docs are correct.
See the issue (#5566) for a discussion on why the code has not been
modified to match the documentation, but instead the documentation has
been modified to match the code.

A handful of modules (including readable-streams) make
inappropriate use of the internal _events property. One
such use is to prepend an event listener to the front
of the array of listeners.
This adds EE.prototype.prependListener() and
EE.prototype.prependOnceListener() methods to add handlers
to the *front* of the listener array.
Doc update and test case is included.

Per https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/1817, there are many modules
that currently abuse the private `_events` property on EventEmitter.
One of the ways it is used is to determine if a particular event is
being listened for. This adds a simple `eventNames()` method that
returns an array of the events with currently registered listeners.

JSON-Style objects have been changed so their closing bracket is

Known issues:
* Not every JSON / object notation has been improved. Should
make another run for this.
* Some example functions break hightlighting due to various

The order of the `newListener` and `removeListener` events with respect
to the actual adding and removing from the underlying listeners array
should be deterministic. There is no compelling reason for leaving it
indeterminate. Changing the ordering is likely to result in breaking
code that was unwittingly relying on the current behaviour, and the
indeterminancy makes it impossible to use these events to determine when
the first or last listener is added for an event.
