Implement nvim_command_output with `execute({cmd},"silent")`.
Behavior changes:
- does not provoke any hit-enter prompt
- no longer prepends a newline char
- does not capture some noise (like the "[New File]" message, see the
change to tabnewentered_spec.lua)
Technically ("bug-for-bug") this a breaking change. But the previous
behavior of nvim_command_output meant that it probably wasn't used for
anything outside of tests.
Also remove the undocumented `v:command_output` variable which was
a hack introduced only for the purposes of nvim_command_output.

Until now, the default `:filetype ...` setup was skipped if the user
config touched `:filetype` in any way (including implicitly via `:syntax
on`). No one needs that, and it's very confusing.
Instead, proceed with `:filetype ... on` unless the user explicitly
called `:filetype ... off`.

Reason: test may contain cleanup at the endwhich is needed for GC to work
properly, but is not done if test fails. With collectgarbage() in former
position it would crash when collecting garbage.
provider#node#can_inspect will fail on some systems because it is common
to have old node versions in OS (any Linux OS that has LTS releases)
and CI (Travis, Appveyor).
NODE_PATH can be trivially set with VimL.
Build scripts don't have to set it for the nodejs tests to work.
NODE_PATH is optional to begin with and is used only as a workaround
for the neovim node.js host.
ci: install nodejs 8 in Appveyor, Travis
provider: check node version for debug support
Resolve https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/7577#issuecomment-350590592 for Unix.
provider: test if nodejs in ci supports --inspect-brk
nodejs host for neovim requires nodejs 6+ to work properly.
nodejs 6.12+ or 7.6+ is required for debug support via `node --inspect-brk`.
provider: run cli.js of nodejs host directly
npm shims are useless because the user cannot set node to debug mode via
--inspect-brk. This is problematic on Windows which use batchfiles and
shell scripts to compensate for not supporting shebang.
The patch uses `npm root -g` to get the absolute path of the global npm
modules. If that fails, then the user did not install neovim npm package
globally. Use that absolute path to find `neovim/bin/cli.js`, which is
what the npm shim actually runs with node. glob() is for a simple file
check in case bin/ is removed because the npm shims are ignored now.
