This completely refactors the `expectsError` behavior: so far it's
almost identical to `assert.throws(fn, object)` in case it was used
with a function as first argument. It had a magical property check
that allowed to verify a functions `type` in case `type` was passed
used in the validation object. This pattern is now completely removed
and `assert.throws()` should be used instead.
The main intent for `common.expectsError()` is to verify error cases
for callback based APIs. This is now more flexible by accepting all
validation possibilites that `assert.throws()` accepts as well. No
magical properties exist anymore. This reduces surprising behavior
for developers who are not used to the Node.js core code base.
This has the side effect that `common` is used significantly less
frequent.

ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE is the most common error used throughout the
code base. This improves the error message by providing more details
to the user and by indicating more precisely which values are allowed
ones and which ones are not.
It adds the actual input to the error message in case it's a primitive.
If it's a class instance, it'll print the class name instead of
"object" and "falsy" or similar entries are not named "type" anymore.

In test/parallel/test-module-loading-error.js, an attempt is made to
load a text file as a native executable. This results in an error
message in a platform specific manner.
AIX was not included in the list of platforms. This fix introduces
the AIX error messages.

Using `assert.AssertionError()` without the `new` keyword results
in a non-intuitive error:
```js

if (!value) fail(value, true, message, '==', assert.ok);

The `assert.AssertionError()` can only be used correctly with `new`,
so this converts it into a proper ES6 class that will give an
appropriate error message.
This also associates the appropriate internal/errors code with all
`assert.AssertionError` instances and updates the appropriate test
cases.

In test-module-loading-error:
* Do not skip the rest of the test just because we are running on a
platform for which the test does not know the expected system error
message. Simply skip the message validation but run the remainder of
the test.
* Use assert.throws() in place of try/catch
* Make checks more strict. Instead of partial string matches, match the
entire string. Add check for Error name to at least do some validation
in situations where we do not have the system error message.

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.

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.
