334a7e3614 doc: replace function expressions with arrows
This commit replaces multiple usages of `function(){}` with ES2015
arrow functions in places it was forgotten earlier. The goal is to
make the docs more consistent since other functions were already
replaced with ES2015 arrows.

In addition, it fixes invalid syntax in modules.markdown to valid
syntax as well as remove `var self = this` pattern usages in the code
where they are now possible to avoid through arrow functions.

e436272897 doc: fenced all code blocks, typo fixes
This changes the code blocks from 4-space indentation to ``` fences for
better syntax highlighting and future linting support. Minor On-the-fly
changes for typos and highlight breaking markdown have been made.

JSON-Style objects have been changed so their closing bracket is
on the same line as the opening one.

Known issues:
* Not every JSON / object notation has been improved. Should
  make another run for this.
* Some example functions break hightlighting due to various
  combinations of brackets. However changing them means leaving
  the code style.

6039a7c1b5 fs: add autoClose option to fs.createWriteStream
Add support to fs.createWriteStream and fs.createWriteStream for an autoClose
option that behaves similarly to the autoClose option supported by
fs.createReadStream and fs.ReadStream.

When an instance of fs.createWriteStream created with autoClose === false finishes,
it is not destroyed. Its underlying fd is not closed and it is the
responsibility of the user to close it.

0803962860 fs: add file descriptor support to *File() funcs
These changes affect the following functions and their synchronous
counterparts:

 * fs.readFile()
 * fs.writeFile()
 * fs.appendFile()

If the first parameter is a uint32, it is treated as a file descriptor.
In all other cases, the original implementation is used to ensure
backwards compatibility. File descriptor ownership is never taken from
the user.

The documentation was adjusted to reflect these API changes. A note was
added to make the user aware of file descriptor ownership and the
conditions under which a file descriptor can be used by each of these
functions.

Tests were extended to test for file descriptor parameters under the
conditions noted in the relevant documentation.

patch documents the behavior of calling fs.watchFile() with a path that
does not yet exist.

This patch also includes a test which checks if a file not present, the
callback is invoked at least once and if the file is created after
the callback is invoked, it will be invoked again with new stat
objects.
