Multiple `fs` functions have a `mode` and or `flag` option. In some
cases those have been mistaken and named wrongly. All of those faulty
entries have been fixed.
Besides that some indentation is also aligned with the rest of the

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.

- There is no such thing as an EOF character on the OS 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()`

1. All default values for optional `encoding` parameters
were documented except for the one in `fs.write(fd, string...)`
method. This PR makes up this deficiency.
2. We have two variants of `fs.write()` / `fs.writeSync()` methods:
for buffers and strings. Currently, the sync methods have only one
common reference to the full description of async methods.
However, the link may seem to belong to the last sync variant only
(for strings) and, as it refers to the first async variant
(for buffers), this may be confusing. This PR makes two different
sync variants refer to two different async variants.
3. In passing, both returned values of sync methods were also made
more concise and unambiguous.

that the user cannot hit crashes like that, instead the

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.

Problem:
Node implements fs.readFile as:
- a call to stat, then
- a C++ -> libuv request to read the entire file using the stat size
Why is this bad?
The effect is to place on the libuv threadpool a potentially-large
read request, occupying the libuv thread until it completes.
While readFile certainly requires buffering the entire file contents,
it can partition the read into smaller buffers
(as is done on other read paths)
along the way to avoid threadpool exhaustion.
If the file is relatively large or stored on a slow medium, reading
the entire file in one shot seems particularly harmful,
and presents a possible DoS vector.
Solution:
Partition the read into multiple smaller requests.
Considerations:
1. Correctness
I don't think partitioning the read like this raises
any additional risk of read-write races on the FS.
If the application is concurrently readFile'ing and modifying the file,
it will already see funny behavior. Though libuv uses preadv where
available, this doesn't guarantee read atomicity in the presence of
concurrent writes.
2. Performance
Downside: Partitioning means that a single large readFile will
require into many "out and back" requests to libuv,
introducing overhead.
Upside: In between each "out and back", other work pending on the
threadpool can take a turn.
In short, although partitioning will slow down a large request,
it will lead to better throughput if the threadpool is handling
more than one type of request.

behavioral changes (external).
This commit addresses an assertion failure on folder watch, enabling the
AIX code for watch feature which was masked under a macro, open up

This has been dragged through various long discussions and has been
elevated to the CTC multiple times.
As noted in
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/7455#issuecomment-228961530,
while this API is still generally considered an anti-pattern, there are
still use-cases it is best suited for, such as checking if a git rebase
is in progress by looking if ".git/rebase-apply/rebasing" exists.
The general consensus is to undeprecate just the sync version, given
that the async version still has the "arguments order inconsistency"
problem.
The consensus at the two last CTC meetings this came up at was also
to undeprecate existsSync() but keep exists() deprecated.

Add a property named bytesRead that exposes how many bytes that have
currently been read from the file. This brings consistency with
WriteStream that has bytesWritten and net.Socket which have both
bytesRead and bytesWritten.

Use blockquotes instead of code blocks for stability markers in
the docs. Doing that:
- Makes the makers appear correctly when viewed e.g. on github.
- Allows remark-lint rules like `no-undefined-references` to work
properly (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/7729).

The name 'event' for the argument of the listener in
fs.watch was confusing considering FSWatcher also had

The parameter to `fs.mkdtemp` is actually `prefix`, not `template`,
because the string passed is appended with the randomly generated
string.
The doc link for `fs.mkdtemp()` was missing and it is included in this

The require('constants') module is currently undocumented and mashes
together unrelated constants. This refactors the require('constants')
in favor of distinct os.constants, fs.constants, and crypto.constants
that are specific to the modules for which they are relevant. The
next step is to document those within the specific modules.
