The dynamicInstantiate loader hook requires that the hooks run in the
same global scope as the code being loaded. We don't want to commit to
this being true in the future. It stops us from sharing hooks between
multiple worker threads or isolating loader hook from the application
code.
Using `getSource` and `getGlobalPreloadCode` the same use cases should
be covered.

When the user tries to activate the inspector that is already active
on a different port and host, we previously just silently reset
the port and host stored in the Environment without actually doing
anything for that to be effective. After this patch, we throw
an error telling the user to close the active inspector before invoking
`inspector.open()` again.

libuv does not expect concurrent operations on `uv_dir_t` instances,
and will gladly create memory leaks, corrupt data, or crash the
process.
This patch forbids that, and:
- Makes sure that concurrent async operations are run sequentially
- Throws an exception if sync operations are attempted during an
async operation
The assumption here is that a thrown exception is preferable to
a potential hard crash.
This fully fixes flakiness from `parallel/test-fs-opendir` when
run under ASAN.

ECMAScript Modules - Experimental Warning Removal:
- module: remove experimental modules warning
(Guy Bedford) [#31974](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/31974)
In Node.js 13 we removed the need to include the --experimental-modules
flag, but when running EcmaScript Modules in Node.js, this would still
result in a warning ExperimentalWarning: The ESM module loader is
experimental.
As of Node.js 14 there is no longer this warning when using ESM in
Node.js. However, the ESM implementation in Node.js remains
experimental. As per our stability index: “The feature is not subject
to Semantic Versioning rules. Non-backward compatible changes or
removal may occur in any future release.” Users should be cautious when
using the feature in production environments.
Please keep in mind that the implementation of ESM in Node.js differs
from the developer experience you might be familiar with. Most
transpilation workflows support features such as optional file
extensions or JSON modules that the Node.js ESM implementation does not
support. It is highly likely that modules from transpiled environments
will require a certain degree of refactoring to work in Node.js. It is
worth mentioning that many of our design decisions were made with two
primary goals. Spec compliance and Web Compatibility. It is our belief
that the current implementation offers a future proof model to
authoring ESM modules that paves the path to Universal JavaScript.
Please read more in our documentation.
The ESM implementation in Node.js is still experimental but we do believe
that we are getting very close to being able to call ESM in Node.js
“stable”. Removing the warning is a huge step in that direction.
New V8 ArrayBuffer API:

It is expected that there will be an ABI mismatch on ARM between the

interact with `std::shared_ptr`. This is expected to be fixed in a
later version of Node.js 14.

Our documentation uses em dashes inconsistently. They are treated
inconsistently typographically too. (For example, they are sometimes
surrounded by spaces and sometimes not.) They are also often confused
with ordinary hyphens such as in the CHANGELOG, where they are
inadvertently mixed together in a single list. The difference is
not obvious in the raw markdown but is very noticeable when rendered,
appearing to be a typographical error (which it in fact is).
The em dash is never needed. There are always alternatives. Remove em
dashes entirely.
