Introducing experimental assert.partialDeepStrictEqual

Sometimes, when writing test, we want to validate that some specific properties
are present, and the mere presence of additional keys are not exactly relevant
for that specific test. For this use case, we can now use
assert.partialDeepStrictEqual, which should be familiar to those already using
assert.deepStrictEqual, with the main difference that it does not require all
properties in the actual parameter to be present in the expected parameter.

Here are a few examples of usage:

assert.partialDeepStrictEqual(
  { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3 },
  { a: 1, b: 2 },
);

assert.partialDeepStrictEqual(
  [1, 2, 3, 4],
  [2, 3],
);

assert.partialDeepStrictEqual(
  { a: { b: { c: 1, d: 2 } }, e: 3 },
  { a: { b: { c: 1 } } },
);

assert.partialDeepStrictEqual(
  { a: { b: { c: 1, d: 2 } }, e: 3 },
  { a: { b: { c: 1 } } },
);

assert.partialDeepStrictEqual(
  new Set([{ a: 1 }, { b: 1 }]),
  new Set([{ a: 1 }]),
);

assert.partialDeepStrictEqual(
  { a: new Set([{ a: 1 }, { b: 1 }]), b: new Map(), c: [1, 2, 3] },
  { a: new Set([{ a: 1 }]), c: [2] },
);

Implement --trace-env and --trace-env-[js|native]-stack

This release introduces --trace-env, --trace-env-js-stack and --trace-env-native-stack
CLI options that print information about any access to environment variables done in the current
Node.js instance to stderr. Currently in the logs, only the names of the environment variables
being accessed are printed, while the values are not printed to avoid leaking sensitive
information. To print the stack trace of the access, use --trace-env-js-stack and/or
--trace-env-native-stack.
