Summary:
In particular, this changes the behavior of NodeJS in the following ways:
- Any attempt to get or modify the global object will result in an error.
- `null` values of `this` will no longer be evaluated to the global object and primitive values of this will not be converted to wrapper objects.
- Writing or deleting properties which have there writeable or configurable attributes set to false will now throw an error instead of failing silently.
- Adding a property to an object whose extensible attribute is false will also throw an error now.
- A functions arguments are not writeable so attempting to change them will now throw an error `arguments = [...]`.
- `with(){}` statements are gone.
- Use of `eval` is effectively banned.
- `eval` and `arguments` are not allowed as variable or function identifiers in any scope.
- The identifiers `implements`, `interface`, `let`, `package`, `private`, `protected`, `public`, `static` and `yield` are all now reserved for future use (roll on ES6).
Test Plan: Verified that Aphlict was still functional.

Summary:
This was broken in D11383. Basically, I had the `ws` module installed globally whilst testing, but the changes made do not work if the `ws` module is installed locally (i.e. in the `./support/aphlict/server/node_modules` directory). After poking around, it seems that this is due to the sandboxing that is done by `JX.require`.
A quick fix is to just //not// use `JX.require`, although you may have a better idea?
The error that is occurring is as follows:
```
<<< UNCAUGHT EXCEPTION! >>>
Error: Cannot find module 'ws'

```
Test Plan: Now able to start the Aphlict server.

Summary: Tidy the Aphlict server by splitting the functionality into two main modules, `AphlictClientServer` and `AphlictAdminServer. There is still further tidying that could be done here, but I feel that this puts us in a much better place.
Test Plan: Sent notifications via `/notification/status/`.
