stream

This PR improves error handling for streams in a few ways.

  1. It ensures that no user defined methods (_read, _write, ...) are run after .destroy has been called.
  2. It introduces an explicit error to tell the user if they are write to write, etc to the stream after it has been destroyed.
  3. It makes streams always emit close as the last thing after they have been destroyed
  4. Changes the default _destroy to not gracefully end streams.

Especially 4. makes it easier for userland modules to handle stream errors as they don't appear as graceful closes anymore. Seen issues being with end-of-stream/pump because of this.

@nodejs/http2 ... just a quick note that this will have a relatively small impact on the 'close' event currently emitted for Http2Stream and Http2Session.

Added docs about the close event and the ERR_STREAM_DESTROYED error.

I'm not very fond of this lines. A current goal is to reduce (or totally remove) the number of access to _readableState and _writableState. However, this requires it. Maybe emitting 'close' automatically can be moved to an option?

This is only because http2 currently emits a 'code' argument with the close event. The idea is to get rid of that in http2 and move the 'code' to a property down the line, but this ensures backwards compat right now.

Should I add a comment explaining that?

What I mean is that in both fs and http2 for compat reason we need to not emit 'close' on destroy. I think this might actually be a legit use case, and so we should support it with an option at construction.

The fs thing is legit, but we should just get rid of the code in http2 imo, but that's another discussion. I like the idea of an option, adding it.

can you add one more test for the _flush() logic and destroy()? It seems you are fixing a bug here. Or without this change some tests would not pass anymore?

Seems like cause should be because here, I think?

4. Changes the default _destroy to not gracefully end streams.

It also updates net, http2, zlib and fs to the new error handling.
