Before this commit, when the user calls methods on a closed or
errored fs event watcher, they could hit a crash since the
FSEventWrap in C++ land may have already been destroyed with
the internal pointer set to nullptr. This commit makes sure
that the user cannot hit crashes like that, instead the
methods calling on a closed watcher will be noops.
Also explicitly documents that the watchers should not be used
in `close` and `error` event handlers.

This commit allows permission bits higher than 0o777 to go through
the API (e.g. `S_ISVTX`=`0o1000`, `S_ISGID`=`0o2000`,
`S_ISUID`=`0o4000`).
Also documents that these bits are not exposed through `fs.constants`
and their behaviors are platform-specific, so the users need to
use them on their own risk.

This fixes an incorrect example in the documentation for calling

This drops exporting duplicate methods that accept FileHandle as the
first argument (to mirror callback-based methods accepting 'fd').
Those methods were not adding actual value to the API because all of
those are already present as FileHandle methods, and they would
probably be confusing to the new users and making docs harder to read.
Also, the API was a bit inconsistent and lacked .close(handle).

The documentation used `file` for the first argument to `appendFile()`
functions. However, the code and (more importantly) thrown errors
referred to it as `path`. The latter is especially important because
context is not provided. So you're looking for a function that takes
`path` but that string doesn't appear in your code *or* in the
documentation. It's not until the end user looks at the source code of
Node.js that they can figure out what's going on. This is why it is
important that the names of variables in the documentation match that in
the code. If we want to change this to `file`, then that's OK, but we
need to do it in the source code and error messages too, not just in the
docs. Changing the docs is the smallest change to synchronize everything
so that's what this change does.
