inspector

Description of change

add --inspect-brk flag to provide same behavior as --debug-brk flag but for inspector. This allows complete separation of inspector and debugger (old debugger) flags.

Strangely it didn't work for me without it. Let me check again though.

Okay figured out this one for the moment and fixed in latest commit. Now I need to figure out how to run code inside the worker process - which I'm not sure how to do since it breaks immediately with --inspect-brk, orphaning the child. Any ideas?

@joshgav I think you'd have to connect to the debugger to move past the break. There are other tests that exercise --debug-brk, but I don't think any that do it with the cluster module. Maybe this would be better to move to a separate test.

Should this be visible in in the help text of node -h. Currently inspect is insider knowledge and not discoverable. Inspector has been merged in node for a while, is its status still experimental?

This is semver-minor, right? Adding the label.

@italoacasas backported in #11149, which should be followed with #11114 to fix the misaligned help text. Would you do the landing on the 7.x branch, or would I do that? Thanks!

@joshgav for the v7.x-staging branch I think everyone can land the backport PR after the proper review. At this point is like landing something in master.
