Enabled no-self-assign rule in ESLint.
This required one change in a benchmark file. Changed a loop (that is
outside of the benchmark itself, so performance is not critical) from a
for loop that repeats a string to use String.prototype.repeat() instead.
While at it, took the opportunity to const-ify the benchmark file.
Also moved the "Strict" section in the .eslintrc to match where it is in
the ESLint documentation. Updated the link for Strict rules to point to
the ESLint website rather than the GitHub-hosted code.

Array#pop() is known to be faster than Array#shift().
To be exact, it's O(1) vs. O(n). In this case there's no difference
from which side of the "pool" array the object is retrieved,
so .pop() should be preferred.

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`).

There is a benchmark for the class method `Buffer.compare()` but not for
the instance method `buf.compare()`. This adds that benchmark.
I used this to confirm a performance regression in an implementation I
was considering. While the implementation was a bust, it does seem like
the benchmark is worthwhile.
The benchmark is nearly identical to the existing `Buffer.compare()`
benchmark except, of course, that it calls `buf.compare()` instead.

Other lint rules may have subtle performance implications in the V8

The benchmark runner spawns new processes for each configuration. The
specific configuration is transfered by process.argv. This means that
the values have to be parsed. As of right now only numbers and strings
are parsed correctly. However other values such as objects where used.
This fixes the benchmarks that used non-string/number values and
prevents future issues by asserting the type.

Break up Buffer#toString() into a fast and slow path. The fast path
optimizes for zero-length buffers and no-arg method invocation.
The speedup for zero-length buffers is a satisfying 700%. The no-arg
toString() operation gets faster by about 13% for a one-byte buffer.
This change exploits the fact that most Buffer#toString() calls are
plain no-arg method calls. Rewriting the method to take no arguments
means a call doesn't go through an ArgumentsAdaptorTrampoline stack
frame in the common case.
