James M Snell d4ec9ff27d stream: reject drop-newest backpressure in shareSync()
With 'drop-newest', a shareSync() consumer that needed to pull while
the buffer was at the budget discarded one entry from the source and
then returned { done: true } even though the source was not exhausted.
for...of loops, and anything else that trusts the iterator protocol,
silently stopped consuming. There is no correct alternative in a
synchronous context: the slowest consumer cannot advance while another
consumer's next() is running, so the call can neither wait for budget
nor keep discarding until budget is released.

Reject 'drop-newest' in shareSync() with ERR_INVALID_ARG_VALUE, as is
already done for 'unbounded'. The two tests that asserted the previous
"done but not detached" behavior are replaced by one that checks the
rejection. Also document how 'unbounded' and 'drop-newest' make the
async share() wait for the slowest consumer.

Internal Modules

The modules located in lib/internal directory are exclusively meant for internal usage within the Node.js core. They are not intended to be accessed via user modules require(). These modules may change at any point in time. Relying on these internal modules outside the core is not supported and can lead to unpredictable behavior.

In certain scenarios, accessing these internal modules for debugging or experimental purposes might be necessary. Node.js provides the --expose-internals flag to expose these modules to userland code. This flag only exists to assist Node.js maintainers with debugging internals. It is not meant for use outside the project.
