async_hooks: add sync enterWith to ALS

This allows transitioning the entire following sync and async execution
sub-tree to the given async storage context. With this one can be sure
the context binding will remain for any following sync activity and all
descending async execution whereas the `run*(...)` methods must wrap
everything that is intended to exist within the context. This is helpful
for scenarios such as prepending a `'connection'` event to an http
server which binds everything that occurs within each request to
the given context. This is helpful for APMs to minimize the need
for patching and especially adding closures.

+* `store` {any}
+
+Calling `asyncLocalStorage.enterWith(store)` will transition into the context
+for the remainder of the current synchronous execution and will persist
+through any following asynchronous calls.
+
+Example:
+
+```js
+const store = { id: 1 };
+asyncLocalStorage.enterWith(store);
+asyncLocalStorage.getStore(); // Returns the store object
+someAsyncOperation(() => {
+  asyncLocalStorage.getStore(); // Returns the same object
+});
+```
+
+This transition will continue for the _entire_ synchronous execution.
+This means that if, for example, the context is entered within an event
+handler subsequent event handlers will also run within that context unless
+specifically bound to another context with an `AsyncResource`.
+
+```js
+const store = { id: 1 };
+
+emitter.on('my-event', () => {
+  asyncLocalStorage.enterWith(store);
+});
+emitter.on('my-event', () => {
+  asyncLocalStorage.getStore(); // Returns the same object
+});
+
+asyncLocalStorage.getStore(); // Returns undefined
+emitter.emit('my-event');
+asyncLocalStorage.getStore(); // Returns the same object
+```
