Use the common.isWindows, common.isFreeBSD and common.isSunOS where
possible.
Add common.isOSX and common.isLinux.
Fix `test-fs-read-file-sync-hostname` as in its current form was not
being run anywhere.

The tap skipping output is so prevalent yet obscure in nature that we
ought to move it into it's own function in test/common.js

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.
