This completely refactors the `expectsError` behavior: so far it's
almost identical to `assert.throws(fn, object)` in case it was used
with a function as first argument. It had a magical property check
that allowed to verify a functions `type` in case `type` was passed
used in the validation object. This pattern is now completely removed
and `assert.throws()` should be used instead.
The main intent for `common.expectsError()` is to verify error cases
for callback based APIs. This is now more flexible by accepting all
validation possibilites that `assert.throws()` accepts as well. No
magical properties exist anymore. This reduces surprising behavior
for developers who are not used to the Node.js core code base.
This has the side effect that `common` is used significantly less
frequent.

ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE is the most common error used throughout the
code base. This improves the error message by providing more details
to the user and by indicating more precisely which values are allowed
ones and which ones are not.
It adds the actual input to the error message in case it's a primitive.
If it's a class instance, it'll print the class name instead of
"object" and "falsy" or similar entries are not named "type" anymore.

This makes a effort to make sure all of these errors will actually
also show the received input.
On top of that it refactors a few tests for better maintainability.
It will also change the returned type to always be a simple typeof
instead of special handling null.

There is actually no reason to use `assert.doesNotThrow()` in the
tests. If a test throws, just let the error bubble up right away
instead of first catching it and then rethrowing it.

* Remove unneeded temp dir cleanup
* Add check for error in `.close()` callback
* Improve error reporting
On that last bullet point, the previous version of the test reported
errors like this:
```
AssertionError: [ '.empty-repl-history-file',

This makes several changes:
1. Allow path/filename to be passed in as a Buffer on fs methods
2. Add `options.encoding` to fs.readdir, fs.readdirSync, fs.readlink,
fs.readlinkSync and fs.watch.
3. Documentation updates
For 1... it's now possible to do:
```js
fs.open(Buffer('/fs/foo/bar'), 'w+', (err, fd) => { });
```
For 2...
```js
fs.readdir('/fs/foo/bar', {encoding:'hex'}, (err,list) => { });
fs.readdir('/fs/foo/bar', {encoding:'buffer'}, (err, list) => { });
```
encoding can also be passed as a string
```js
fs.readdir('/fs/foo/bar', 'hex', (err,list) => { });
```
The default encoding is set to UTF8 so this addresses the
discrepency that existed previously between fs.readdir and
fs.watch handling filenames differently.
