There are a lot of changes in this commit:
1) Remove the `noAssert` argument from all read and write functions.
2) Improve the performance of all read floating point functions
significantly. This is done by switching to TypedArrays as the
write floating point write functions.
3) No implicit type coercion for offset and byteLength anymore.
4) Adds a lot of tests.
5) Moves the read and write functions to the internal buffer file
to split the files in smaller chunks.
6) Reworked a lot of existing tests.
7) Improve the performane of all all read write functions by using
a faster input validation and by improving function logic.
8) Significantly improved the performance of all read int functions.
This is done by using a implementation without a loop.
9) Improved error handling.
10) Rename test file to use the correct subsystem.

If the Buffer object's length is zero, or equal to the underlying
buffer object's length, `parent` property returns `undefined`.
> new Buffer(0).parent
undefined
> new Buffer(Buffer.poolSize).parent
undefined
This patch makes the buffer objects to consistently expose the buffer
object via the `parent` property, always.

Several changes:
* Soft-Deprecate Buffer() constructors
* Add `Buffer.from()`, `Buffer.alloc()`, and `Buffer.allocUnsafe()`
* Add `--zero-fill-buffers` command line option
* Add byteOffset and length to `new Buffer(arrayBuffer)` constructor
* buffer.fill('') previously had no effect, now zero-fills
* Update the docs

common.js needs to be loaded in all tests so that there is checking
for variable leaks and possibly other things. However, it does not
need to be assigned to a variable if nothing in common.js is referred
to elsewhere in the test.

Documentation currently states that setting noAssert and passing a value
larger than can fit in the Buffer will cause data to be silently
dropped. Change implementation to match documented behavior.
