Release: v3.0.0

[boneskull]

OK, so this PR represents v3.0.0, which contains breaking changes. Notably, Node.js v0.8 support is dropped.

This PR will probably undergo some rebasing before it's merged.

TODO:

1. AppVeyor must pass
2. Update contributors field of package.json
3. Update CHANGELOG
4. Update relevant site documentation

Once 1. is working, I'll publish this branch as a pre-release version.

A rough estimation of notable changes:

• Add IE7 support

• Mocha will throw an exception if done is passed to a test and a Promise is returned:

  it('should now throw an exception', function (done) {
    return new Promise(function (resolve) {
      resolve();
    })
      .then(done);
  });

• glob is updated to latest version; a production npm install of mocha should not fail an nsp check (DoS vulnerability in glob dependency #2318)

• jade is upgraded to latest pug (as of last night) (Change jade dependency to pug after their renaming #2200)

• it.only() and describe.only() no longer leverage "grep" to do their work; these functions should now work like you think they should (describe.only matches more that one describe test suite #1481)

• Altered dot reporter output to be more visually distinctive.

• Mocha will now throw an error if a suite or test is untitled:

  // this will now fail
  it(function () {
    assert(true);
  });

• The minimum version of Node.js required is now v0.10.x.

• The minimum version of npm required is now v1.4.x.

I've updated the docs and will likely publish Thursday (7/28), barring any unexpected issues or concerns.

I'm still somewhat concerned about the .only() behavior. If someone feels like testing it manually further, that'd be cool.

@boneskull thanks for the update! I switched over a couple of our modules yesterday and haven't noticed any problems yet, so that's good :) Although, a grain of salt: I haven't used only() in quite a while (been using --grep and .skip() instead)

rebase and merged
