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.

Previously, test/parallel/test-cli-syntax.js was spawning a lot of child
processes, but using spawnSync, which made the test run each child
process serially. This switches most of the test cases to use exec so
that they are asynchronous. Locally, the test went from > 5 seconds to
under 2 seconds.

* Remove needless RegExp flag
In fixed case, `/g` flag is needless in the boolean context.
* Remove needless RegExp capturing
Use non-capturing grouping or remove capturing completely when:
* capturing is useless per se, e.g. in test() check;
* captured groups are not used afterward at all;
* some of the later captured groups are not used afterward.
* Use test, not match/exec in boolean context
match() and exec() return a complicated object,
unneeded in a boolean context.
* Do not needlessly repeat RegExp creation
This commit takes RegExp creation out of cycles and other repetitions.
As long as the RegExp does not use /g flag and match indices,
we are safe here.
In tests, this fix hardly gives a significant performance gain,
but it increases clarity and maintainability,
reassuring some RegExps to be identical.
RegExp in functions are not taken out of their functions:
while these functions are called many times
and their RegExps are recreated with each call,
the performance gain in test cases
does not seem to be worth decreasing function self-dependency.

This is to ensure that it is evaluated the same way it would be if it
were to be run by node or required.
Before, the following would pass if run by node, but fail if run via
the syntax check flag:
if (true) {
return;
}
Now, this will pass the syntax check
