#8482

Without #8482, it's impossible to back-port pull requests that use the new APIs.

cc @addaleax - this is your PR plus some minor tweaks:

  1. Some updates to cares_wrap.cc for code that doesn't exist in v8.x
  2. ArrayBufferAllocator::Allocate() is different in v6.x because of src: clean up ArrayBufferAllocator #7082
  3. I removed LowMemoryNotification() in test_util.cc because of double symbol conflicts

CI: https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-test-pull-request/11071/

Adds an optional second parameter to `node::Malloc()` and an optional third parameter to `node::Realloc()` giving the size/number of items to be allocated, in the style of `calloc(3)`. Use a proper overflow check using division; the previous `CHECK_GE(n * size, n);` would not detect all cases of overflow (e.g. `size == SIZE_MAX / 2 && n == 3`).

Pass the desired return type directly to the allocation functions, so that the resulting `static_cast` from `void*` becomes unneccessary and the return type can be use as a reasonable default value for the `size` parameter.

Call `v8::Isolate::GetCurrent()->LowMemoryNotification()` when an allocation fails to give V8 a chance to clean up and return memory before retrying (and possibly giving up).
