This adds long-requested methods for asynchronously interacting and
iterating through directory entries by using `uv_fs_opendir`,
`uv_fs_readdir`, and `uv_fs_closedir`.
`fs.opendir()` and friends return an `fs.Dir`, which contains methods
for doing reads and cleanup. `fs.Dir` also has the async iterator
symbol exposed.
The `read()` method and friends only return `fs.Dirent`s for this API.
Having a entry type or doing a `stat` call is deemed to be necessary in
the majority of cases, so just returning dirents seems like the logical
choice for a new api.
Reading when there are no more entries returns `null` instead of a
dirent. However the async iterator hides that (and does automatic
cleanup).
The code lives in separate files from the rest of fs, this is done
partially to prevent over-pollution of those (already very large)
files, but also in the case of js allows loading into `fsPromises`.
Due to async_hooks, this introduces a new handle type of `DIRHANDLE`.
This PR does not attempt to make complete optimization of
this feature. Notable future improvements include:
- Moving promise work into C++ land like FileHandle.
- Possibly adding `readv()` to do multi-entry directory reads.
- Aliasing `fs.readdir` to `fs.scandir` and doing a deprecation.

The text contained a number of inaccuracies:
- The main thread is never blocked by a stream close.
- There is no such thing as an EOF character on the OS level,
the libuv level, or the Node.js stream level.
- These streams *do* respond to `.close()`, but pending
reads can delay this indefinitely.
- Pushing a random character into the stream works only when
the source data can be controlled; Using the JS `.push()`
method is something different, and does not “unblock” any threads.

After https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/20785, we wrap autogenerated
manpage links in code elements. This PR unify some hardcoded manpage
links with autogenerated ones: it adds backticks, parentheses, section
numbers, and updates URLs.
Also, some typos are fixes in passing (missing periods, reference
sorting).

This drops exporting duplicate methods that accept FileHandle as the
first argument (to mirror callback-based methods accepting 'fd').
Those methods were not adding actual value to the API because all of
those are already present as FileHandle methods, and they would
probably be confusing to the new users and making docs harder to read.
Also, the API was a bit inconsistent and lacked .close(handle).

manipulated, and there is no distinction among owner, group
or others.
- mkdir on Windows does not support the mode argument.

Several minor fixes to the entries for `mkdtemp()`. The most significant
is that a mistaken use of `fs.mkdtemp()` is corrected to
`fsPromises.mkdtemp()`.

The documentation used `file` for the first argument to `appendFile()`
functions. However, the code and (more importantly) thrown errors
referred to it as `path`. The latter is especially important because
context is not provided. So you're looking for a function that takes
`path` but that string doesn't appear in your code *or* in the
documentation. It's not until the end user looks at the source code of
Node.js that they can figure out what's going on. This is why it is
important that the names of variables in the documentation match that in
the code. If we want to change this to `file`, then that's OK, but we
need to do it in the source code and error messages too, not just in the
docs. Changing the docs is the smallest change to synchronize everything
so that's what this change does.
