util: introduce util.types.is[…] type checks
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Provide public APIs for native typechecking that is actually useful.
The motivation for this is providing alternatives to userland
modules that would currently rely on `process.binding('util')`.

@addaleax 😒 This should have been assigned to a number on landing, afaik.

### DEP0XXX: process.binding('util').is[...] typechecks
Type: Documentation-only (supports [`--pending-deprecation`][])
Using `process.binding()` in general should be avoided. The type checking
methods in particular can be replaced by using [`util.types`][].
