This commit modifies util.inspect(obj) to additionally show the name of
the function that constructed the object. This often reveals useful
information about the object's prototype. In other words, instead of
> new Cls
{}
we have
> new Cls
Cls {}
This also works with exotic objects:
> class ArrayCls extends Array {}
> new ArrayCls(1, 2, 3)
ArrayCls [ 1, 2, 3 ]
The names of "trivial" constructors like Object and Array are not shown,
unless there is a mismatch between the object representation and the
prototype:
> Object.create([])
Array {}
This feature is inspired by browser devtools.

Enable linting for the test directory. A number of changes was made so
all tests conform the current rules used by lib and src directories. The
only exception for tests is that unreachable (dead) code is allowed.
test-fs-non-number-arguments-throw had to be excluded from the changes
because of a weird issue on Windows CI.

The copyright and license notice is already in the LICENSE file. There
is no justifiable reason to also require that it be included in every
file, since the individual files are not individually distributed except
as part of the entire package.
Properties with symbol names are shown if option `showHidden` of `util.inspect`
or `console.dir` is `true`.
