ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE is the most common error used throughout the
code base. This improves the error message by providing more details
to the user and by indicating more precisely which values are allowed
ones and which ones are not.
It adds the actual input to the error message in case it's a primitive.
If it's a class instance, it'll print the class name instead of
"object" and "falsy" or similar entries are not named "type" anymore.

This makes sure the input arguments get validated so implementation
errors will be caught early. It also improves a couple of error
messages by providing more detailed information and fixes errors
detected by the new functionality. Besides that a error type got
simplified and tests got refactored.

This makes a effort to make sure all of these errors will actually
also show the received input.
On top of that it refactors a few tests for better maintainability.
It will also change the returned type to always be a simple typeof
instead of special handling null.

Adds a new `../common/fixtures' module to begin normalizing
`test/fixtures` use. Our test code is a bit inconsistent with
regards to use of the fixtures directory. Some code uses
`path.join()`, some code uses string concats, some other
code uses template strings, etc. In mnay cases, significant
duplication of code is seen when accessing fixture files, etc.
This updates many (but by no means all) of the tests in the
test suite to use the new consistent API. There are still
many more to update, which would make an excelent Code-n-Learn
exercise.

* Use `common.mustNotCall()` in place of `common.noop` where appropriate
* Increase specificity of regular expressions (that is, make them match
the whole error string rather than part of the error string) in
`assert.throws()` calls
