This change removes `common.noop` from the Node.js internal testing
common module.
Over the last few weeks, I've grown to dislike the `common.noop`
abstraction.
First, new (and experienced) contributors are unaware of it and so it
results in a large number of low-value nits on PRs. It also increases
the number of things newcomers and infrequent contributors have to be
aware of to be effective on the project.
Second, it is confusing. Is it a singleton/property or a getter? Which
should be expected? This can lead to subtle and hard-to-find bugs. (To
my knowledge, none have landed on master. But I also think it's only a
matter of time.)
Third, the abstraction is low-value in my opinion. What does it really
get us? A case could me made that it is without value at all.
Lastly, and this is minor, but the abstraction is wordier than not using
the abstraction. `common.noop` doesn't save anything over `() => {}`.
So, I propose removing it.

* 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.
