This adds an example of a semi-common promise pattern that could
result in false-positive 'unhandledRejection' events, to help motivate
why there is a dual 'rejectionHandled' event. I anticipate it being
helpful to users who encounter 'unhandledRejection' events that do not
stem from obvious typos such as the JSON.pasre example.
Also cleans up the promise rejection tracking sample. By using a Map
instead of array we can get O(1) deletion and actually record the errors.
And, fixed indentation and backtick usage there to align with the rest of
the document.

When v8 implemented proper one-byte string support Node's internal
"binary" encoding implementation was removed in favor of it. The result
was that "binary" encoding effectively became "latin-1" encoding.
Because of this and because one-byte strings are natively supported by
v8 the buffer encoding is not deprecated and will not be removed.

module in an efficient way to validate required function arguments.
