use String.prototype.repeat() to simplify code, less code,
more semantically.

In order to comply with linting rules used in the rest of the code base,
eliminate redeclared variables. A conservative approach is used so as to
avoid unintentional performance issues (for example, as might be seen in
some situations when using `let` instead of `var`).

In the hopes of soon having the benchmark code linted, this change
groups all the likely non-controversial lint-compliance changes such as
indentation, semi-colon usage, and single-vs.-double quotation marks.
Other lint rules may have subtle performance implications in the V8
currently shipped with Node.js. Those changes will require more careful
review and will be in a separate change.

include() should not be used by libraries because it will pollute the global
namespace. To discourage this behavior and bring Node more in-line with
the current CommonJS module system, include() is removed.
Small scripts like unit tests often times do want to pollute the global
namespace for ease. To avoid the boiler plate code of
var x = require("/x.js");
var foo = x.foo;
var bar = x.bar;
The function node.mixin() is stolen from jQuery's jQuery.extend. So that it
can be written:
node.mixin(require("/x.js"));

This is a rather large refactor! Mostly for the better side. I've had to
remove some functionality like req.interrupt(). A lot of other work is left
messy or incomplete.
