[v6.x backport] src: simplify memory management using `node::Malloc()` and friends

Rodrigo Muino Tomonari requested to merge github/fork/bnoordhuis/backport-pr8482-v6.x into v6.x-staging

https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/8482

Without #8482, it's impossible to back-port pull requests that use the new APIs.

cc @addaleax - this is your PR plus some minor tweaks:

  1. Some updates to cares_wrap.cc for code that doesn't exist in v8.x
  2. ArrayBufferAllocator::Allocate() is different in v6.x because of #7082
  3. I removed LowMemoryNotification() in test_util.cc because of double symbol conflicts

CI: https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-test-pull-request/11071/
