Subject: [PATCH] util: change util.inspect depth default

The current default is not ideal in most use cases. Therefore it is
changed to inspect objects to a maximum depth of 20 in case
util.inspect is called with it's defaults. The default is kept at 2
when using console.log() and similar in the repl.
