If a socket is sent to a child, any data that is buffered in the socket
will not be sent to the child. The child will only receive data from the
socket that is sent after the child has the socket.

Previously, the example was checking for error by strict equality to

This commit refines the documentation around child.kill(), where kill
attempts against shells will lead to unexpected results. Namely, on
linux the child process of a child process will not terminate, when
its parent gets terminated. This is different across the the
platforms.

this adds an example of a long running node process that actually
executes node code.
Also it mentions the not to harmonic detach behaviours of the
different platforms, whereas detaching on unix requires ignoring
the child_process' stdio explicitely.

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.

This changes the code blocks from 4-space indentation to ``` fences for
better syntax highlighting and future linting support. Minor On-the-fly
changes for typos and highlight breaking markdown have been made.
JSON-Style objects have been changed so their closing bracket is
on the same line as the opening one.
Known issues:
* Not every JSON / object notation has been improved. Should
make another run for this.
* Some example functions break hightlighting due to various
combinations of brackets. However changing them means leaving
the code style.

Add an optional callback parameter to `ChildProcess.prototype.send()`
that is invoked when the message has been sent.
Juggle the control channel's reference count so that in-flight messages
keep the event loop (and therefore the process) alive until they have
been sent.
`ChildProcess.prototype.send()` and `process.send()` used to operate
synchronously but became asynchronous in commit libuv/libuv@393c1c5
("unix: set non-block mode in uv_{pipe,tcp,udp}_open"), which landed
in io.js in commit 07bd05b ("deps: update libuv to 1.2.1").
