`setTimeout()`, `setInterval()` and `setIntermediate` currently
throw errors when receiving non-function objects as their first
argument, but only do so when trying to execute the callback,
i.e. after the waited time has passed. This may complicate
debugging when a lot of calls to `setTimeout()`/etc. are involved,
so failing as early as possible seems like a good idea.
`setTimeout()` historically ignored an falsy first
argument, while the other functions do not and throw instead.
This patch changes this behaviour to make all three match and
adds remarks in the corresponding documentation.

In debugger, the usage of `repl` very ugly. I'd like there is a `p`

Usage:
```

< Debugger listening on port 5858
connecting to 127.0.0.1:5858 ... ok
break in /Users/jacksontian/git/node_research/server.js:1

2
3 http.createServer(function (req, res) {
debug> exec process.title
/Users/jacksontian/git/io.js/out/Release/iojs
debug>
```
And the `repl`:
```
debug> repl
Press Ctrl + C to leave debug repl
> process.title
'/Users/jacksontian/git/io.js/out/Release/iojs'
debug>
(^C again to quit)
```
The enter and leave debug repl is superfluous.

stem from obvious typos such as the JSON.pasre example.

These changes affect the following functions and their synchronous

* 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.

This adds a new `--tls-cipher-list` command line switch
that can be used to override the built-in default cipher
list. The intent of this is to make it possible to enforce
an alternative default cipher list at the process level.
Overriding the default cipher list is still permitted at
the application level by changing the value of
`require('tls').DEFAULT_CIPHERS`.
As part of the change, the built in default list is moved
out of tls.js and into node_constants.h and node_constants.cc.
Two new constants are added to require('constants'):
* defaultCipherList (the active default cipher list)
* defaultCoreCipherList (the built-in default cipher list)
A test case and doc changes are included.
A new NODE_DEFINE_STRING_CONSTANT macro is also created in
node_internals.h
When node_constants is initialized, it will pick up either
the passed in command line switch or fallback to the default
built-in suite.
Within joyent/node, this change had originaly been wrapped
up with a number of other related commits involving the
removal of the RC4 cipher. This breaks out this isolated
change.

Previously if the array length was one then the same same buffer was

chance mutating the buffer returned by .concat() could mutate the buffer
passed in.
Also fixes an inconsistency when throwing if an array member was not a
Buffer instance. For example:
Buffer.concat([42]); // Returns 42

Currently when a server receives a new connection the underlying socket
handle begins reading data immediately. This causes problems when
sockets are passed between processes, as data can be read by the first
process and thus never read by the second process.
This commit allows sockets that are constructed with a handle to be
paused initially.

Currently, cluster workers can be removed from the workers list in three
different places:
- In the exit event handler for the worker process.
- In the disconnect event handler of the worker process.
- In the disconnect event handler of the cluster master.
However, handles for a given worker are cleaned up only in one of these
places: in the cluster master's disconnect event handler.
Because these events happen asynchronously, it is possible that the
workers list is empty before we even clean up one handle. This makes
the assert that makes sure that no handle is left when the workers
list is empty fail.
This commit removes the worker from the cluster.workers list only when
the worker is dead _and_ disconnected, at which point we're sure that
its associated handles are cleaned up.
Fixes#8191 and #8192.
