* Remove needless RegExp flag
In fixed case, `/g` flag is needless in the boolean context.
* Remove needless RegExp capturing
Use non-capturing grouping or remove capturing completely when:
* capturing is useless per se, e.g. in test() check;
* captured groups are not used afterward at all;
* some of the later captured groups are not used afterward.
* Use test, not match/exec in boolean context
match() and exec() return a complicated object,
unneeded in a boolean context.
* Do not needlessly repeat RegExp creation
This commit takes RegExp creation out of cycles and other repetitions.
As long as the RegExp does not use /g flag and match indices,
we are safe here.
In tests, this fix hardly gives a significant performance gain,
but it increases clarity and maintainability,
reassuring some RegExps to be identical.
RegExp in functions are not taken out of their functions:
while these functions are called many times
and their RegExps are recreated with each call,
the performance gain in test cases
does not seem to be worth decreasing function self-dependency.

This commit adds a mustNotCall() helper for testing. This provides
an alternative to using common.fail() as a callback, or creating
a callback function for the sole purpose of calling common.fail().

Unsanitized paths containing line feed characters can be used for
header injection and request splitting so reject them with an exception.
There seems to be no reasonable use case for allowing control characters
(characters <= 31) while there are several scenarios where they can be
used to exploit software bugs so reject control characters altogether.

Currently there are many instances where assert.fail is directly passed
to a callback for error handling. Unfortunately this will swallow the
error as it is the third argument of assert.fail that sets the message
not the first.
This commit adds a new function to test/common.js that simply wraps
assert.fail and calls it with the provided message.
Tip of the hat to @trott for pointing me in the direction of this.

Enable linting for the test directory. A number of changes was made so
all tests conform the current rules used by lib and src directories. The
only exception for tests is that unreachable (dead) code is allowed.
test-fs-non-number-arguments-throw had to be excluded from the changes
because of a weird issue on Windows CI.
