This commit introduces a nop function that is used as the Writable.prototype.write() callback when one is not provided. This saves on function and closure creation.

Yea, I personally prefer noop, but nop seems to be used in core too.

LGTM but I suggest rewording this:

This saves on function and closure creation.

To:

This saves on function object creation.

Empty functions don't allocate a closure context (they don't close over anything) but they still create a function object (when passed around as values.)
