ERROR HANDLING *luv-error-handling*
In libuv, errors are represented by negative numbered constants. While these
constants are made available in the `uv.errno` table, they are not returned by
luv functions and the libuv functions used to handle them are not exposed.
Instead, if an internal error is encountered, the failing luv function will
return to the caller an assertable `nil, err, name` tuple:
- `nil` idiomatically indicates failure
- `err` is a string with the format `{name}: {message}`
- `{name}` is the error name provided internally by `uv_err_name`
- `{message}` is a human-readable message provided internally by
`uv_strerror`
- `name` is the same string used to construct `err`
This tuple is referred to below as the `fail` pseudo-type.
When a function is called successfully, it will return either a value that is
relevant to the operation of the function, or the integer `0` to indicate
success, or sometimes nothing at all. These cases are documented below.
