Description of change

Function declarations in the REPL are preprocessed into variable declarations before being evaluated. However, the preprocessing logic did not account for the star in a generator function declaration, which caused the preprocessor to output invalid syntax in some circumstances.

Fixes: https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/9850
