Anna Henningsen 3ca0df22e6 n-api: defer Buffer finalizer with SetImmediate
We have a test that verifies that JS execution from the Buffer
finalizer is accepted, and that errors thrown are passed
down synchronously.

However, since the finalizer executes during GC, this is behaviour is
fundamentally invalid and, for good reasons, disallowed by the
JS engine. This leaves us with the options of either finding a way
to allow JS execution from the callback, or explicitly forbidding it on
the N-API side as well.

This commit implements the former option, since it is the more
backwards-compatible one, in the sense that the current situation
sometimes appears to work as well and we should not break that
behaviour if we don’t have to, but rather try to actually make it
work reliably.

Since GC timing is largely unobservable anyway, this commit moves
the callback into a `SetImmediate()`, as we do elsewhere in the code,
and a second pass callback is not an easily implemented option,
as the API is supposed to wrap around Node’s `Buffer` API.
In this case, exceptions are handled like other uncaught exceptions.

Two tests have to be adjusted to account for the timing difference.
This is unfortunate, but unavoidable if we want to conform to the
JS engine API contract and keep all tests.

Node.js Core Tests

This directory contains code and data used to test the Node.js implementation.

For a detailed guide on how to write tests in this directory, see the guide on writing tests.

On how to run tests in this directory, see the contributing guide.

For the tests to run on Windows, be sure to clone Node.js source code with the autocrlf git config flag set to true.

Test Directories

Directory Runs on CI Purpose
abort Yes Tests for when the --abort-on-uncaught-exception flag is used.
addons Yes Tests for addon functionality along with some tests that require an addon.
async-hooks Yes Tests for async_hooks functionality.
benchmark No Test minimal functionality of benchmarks.
cctest Yes C++ tests that are run as part of the build process.
code-cache No Tests for a Node.js binary compiled with V8 code cache.
common Common modules shared among many tests. Documentation
doctool Yes Tests for the documentation generator.
es-module Yes Test ESM module loading.
fixtures Test fixtures used in various tests throughout the test suite.
internet No Tests that make real outbound network connections. Tests for networking related modules may also be present in other directories, but those tests do not make outbound connections.
js-native-api Yes Tests for Node.js-agnostic n-api functionality.
known_issues Yes Tests reproducing known issues within the system. All tests inside of this directory are expected to fail. If a test doesn't fail on certain platforms, those should be skipped via known_issues.status.
message Yes Tests for messages that are output for various conditions (console.log, error messages etc.)
node-api Yes Tests for Node.js-specific n-api functionality.
parallel Yes Various tests that are able to be run in parallel.
pseudo-tty Yes Tests that require stdin/stdout/stderr to be a TTY.
pummel No Various tests for various modules / system functionality operating under load.
sequential Yes Various tests that must not run in parallel.
testpy Test configuration utility used by various test suites.
tick-processor No Tests for the V8 tick processor integration. The tests are for the logic in lib/internal/v8_prof_processor.js and lib/internal/v8_prof_polyfill.js. The tests confirm that the profile processor packages the correct set of scripts from V8 and introduces the correct platform specific logic.
v8-updates No Tests for V8 performance integration.
