// Scan API sources for definitions.
//
// Note the output is produced based on a world class parser, adherence to
// conventions, and a bit of guess work. Examples:
//
// * We scan for top level module.exports statements, and determine what
// is exported by looking at the source code only (i.e., we don't do
// an eval). If exports include `Foo`, it probably is a class, whereas
// if what is exported is `constants` it probably is prefixed by the
// basename of the source file (e.g., `zlib`), unless that source file is
// `buffer.js`, in which case the name is just `buf`. unless the constant
// is `kMaxLength`, in which case it is `buffer`.
//
// * We scan for top level definitions for those exports, handling
// most common cases (e.g., `X.prototype.foo =`, `X.foo =`,
// `function X(...) {...}`). Over time, we expect to handle more
// cases (example: ES2015 class definitions).
