Backport #8189 (because the rest depends on that) and #8174, with one require() line added that is present in master but missing in v6.x.

* favor `assert.strictEqual()` and friends of `assert.equal()` etc.

Add a `util.inspect.custom` Symbol which can be used to customize
`util.inspect()` output. Providing `obj[util.inspect.custom]`
works like providing `obj.inspect`, except that the former allows
avoiding name clashes with other `inspect()` methods.

If a custom inspection function returned `this`, use that value
for further formatting instead of going into infinite recursion.

This is particularly useful when combined with `util.inspect.custom`
because returning `this` from such a method makes it easy to
have an `inspect()` function that is ignored by `util.inspect` without
actually having to provide an alternative for custom inspection.

CI: https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-test-commit/4948/
CITGM: https://ci.nodejs.org/view/Node.js-citgm/job/citgm-smoker/380/ (because of the added internal/ reference in lib/buffer.js)

New CI, the last one got stuck: https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-test-commit/4956/
