This adds a memoized helper function for detecting Emacs throughout the
CLI tool and automatically resorts to "ProgressDisplayStatus" mode when
Emacs is enabled.
In my tests with both Emacs 22 and 27, this nearly doubled performance
when using Meteor from within the Emacs shell (i.e. `M-x shell`).
This means running `meteor update` on Windows with an existing (pre-1.6)
installation of Meteor will install a 32-bit version of Meteor 1.6, even
if the underlying machine architecture could handle a 64-bit version.
To get a native 64-bit version of Meteor, Windows developers should
reinstall Meteor 1.6 from scratch using the new and improved Windows
installer (👋 @abernix), rather than running `meteor update`.
If we really want to make `meteor update` just work ✨, we can
revisit this change in Meteor 1.6.1.
Since we can't change the springboarding logic of existing Meteor
releases, this decision has to be made by the springboarded-to Meteor 1.6
release, and may result in a second springboarding.
Once Windows developers update to a 64-bit version of Meteor 1.6, they may
still wish to run apps using older versions of Meteor where only 32-bit
builds of meteor-tool are available. This commit makes that possible.
This commit reverts much of the work @hwillson had put in place for
meteor/meteor#9173, which made it possible for 32-bit and 64-bit
Mongo versions to exist in harmony within the same dev-bundle. That
hard work was not in vein though as it offered invaluable research.
Ultimately, this showed that a more aggressive approach would be ideal,
even if the proposed option would have worked great in the short-term.
In the wake of the news that Mongo would no longer be supporting 32-bit
versions, these changes are important so 32-bit users of Meteor can
continue to have a functioning Mongo binary in development, while still
allowing Meteor to ship newer Mongo (e.g. 3.4+) binaries for 64-bit
users. This is particularly relevant for Windows users, who have
previously only had 32-bit Meteor builds and represented a majority of
"32-bit" development, despite the fact most of their hosts supported
64-bit. During another time in Meteor's life, this made sense.
This commit takes improved functionality to the next level (and makes
the aforementioned changes obsolete) by introducing support for building
and shipping Meteor for Windows in a 64-bit flavor (in addition to
32-bit), which will hopefully solve a number of performance matters on
Windows by using binaries which are pre-compiled for 64-bit, rather than
forcing the Windows kernel to deal with 32-bit binaries. While Windows
has shown it's quite capable of dealing with such a situation, it seems
more and more clear (given improvements in underlying dependencies) that
performance gains could be had by freeing Windows of its 32-bit work.
This commit also further perpetuates the "archinfo" plot-line with more
story (about Windows) and various spelling corrections.
These changes introduce dual Mongo support into the Meteor
Tool. 32-bit Mongo (3.2.15) will be used by Meteor when the
Tool is run on a 32-bit OS (32-bit Linux and Windows). 64-bit
Mongo (3.4.9) will be used when the Tool is run on a 64-bit
OS (64-bit Linux, Windows and macOS).

The pull request corresponding to our fork is not going to be merged, so
it's better to use the alternative this.finished API available in newer
versions of the upstream package.

With Meteor 1.6 / Node 8, I noticed _buildLocalPackages taking multiple
seconds on initial server startup and restart, and the problem seems to be
that we call the global.gc function too often. This wasn't a problem in
previous versions of Node, as far as I know, but it makes sense to heed
the comment in tools/utils/gc.js, now that it matters.

1a036553 in 1.4.4.2 expanded on the HTTP error checking added by 30aec9f in
1.4.2. Neither of these changes were aware that discoverGalaxy invokes
httpHelpers.request with json:true, resulting in a `body` that is a parsed JSON
object rather than a string or Buffer. Before 1.4.4.2, this had no consequences
because body.length is undefined and `undefined < 90` is false, but the change
to Buffer.byteLength actually made the condition true.
It's safe to not check length in the JSON case because a truncated JSON object
is not legal JSON (unless the truncation just drops trailing whitespace, in
white case that's OK).
I check for both string and Buffer because some calls to this function pass in
an encoding option. Buffer.byteLength works with both types.

This fixes intermittent failures of the cordova-platforms tests, which
would sometimes fail when one of the app identifier components happened to
start with a number instead of a letter.
The text of the exception was:
Error validating package name. Package name must look like: com.company.Name
For example:
https://circleci.com/gh/meteor/meteor/3710#tests/containers/2
When a download aborts prematurely, the status code is often 200 OK, even
though we probably should not proceed with any further processing of the
downloaded information.
This silent failure leads to problems like the dreaded "Error: ENOENT: no
such file or directory, open... os.json" (#7806 and others), which were
hard to diagnose properly because the failure occurred only later, when
extracting a buffer that downloaded incompletely.
The getUrlWithResuming helper should be able to retry after this error is
thrown, which will result in a more helpful warning, even if in the most
common case, i.e. MaxCDN failure, it will never actually succeed.
Note that this change will not help until Meteor 1.4.2 is officially
released and becomes the implementation used to download later releases.
Mitigates #7806.
We now use a smaller file (the `babel-compiler` archive instead of
`meteor-tool`), and we interrupt every 500kB, which leads to three total
interruptions for that file. Also, we only delay one second (instead of
five) between attempts.
This is a test that really needs to run and pass every time we run the
test suite, so I decided it shouldn't be --slow. If it takes too long, we
can always download a smaller test file.
Hard-coding the download length was a recipe for brittleness, so now I'm
downloading the file without interruptions in parallel with the
interrupted/resumed download, so that we can compare the two files when
both have finished downloading.
Follow-up to #7399.
