2017-07-19, Version 8.2.0 (Current)
Big thanks to @addaleax who prepared the vast majority of this release.

Notable changes:

* **Async Hooks**
  * Multiple improvements to Promise support in `async_hooks` have been made.

* **Build**
  * The compiler version requirement to build Node with GCC has been raised to
    GCC 4.9.4.
    [[`820b011ed6`](820b011ed6)]
    [#13466](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/13466)

* **Cluster**
  * Users now have more fine-grained control over the inspector port used by
    individual cluster workers. Previously, cluster workers would simply
    increment from the master's debug port.
    [[`dfc46e262a`](dfc46e262a)]
    [#14140](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/14140)

* **DNS**
  * The server used for DNS queries can now use a custom port.
    [[`ebe7bb29aa`](ebe7bb29aa)]
    [#13723](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/13723)
  * Support for `dns.resolveAny()` has been added.
    [[`6e30e2558e`](6e30e2558e)]
    [#13137](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/13137)

* **npm**
  * The `npm` CLI has been updated to version 5.3.0. In particular, it now comes
    with the `npx` binary, which is also shipped with Node.
    [[`dc3f6b9ac1`](dc3f6b9ac1)]
    [#14235](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/14235)
