Notable changes:
* npm: Upgrade to v2.15.1. Fixes a security flaw in the use of
authentication tokens in HTTP requests that would allow an attacker
to set up a server that could collect tokens from users of the
command-line interface. Authentication tokens have previously been
sent with every request made by the CLI for logged-in users,
regardless of the destination of the request. This update fixes this
by only including those tokens for requests made against the
registry or registries used for the current install.

* openssl: OpenSSL v1.0.1s disables the EXPORT and LOW ciphers as they
are obsolete and not considered safe. This release of Node.js turns
on `OPENSSL_NO_WEAK_SSL_CIPHERS` to fully disable the 27 ciphers
included in these lists which can be used in SSLv3 and higher. Full
details can be found in our LTS discussion on the matter
(https://github.com/nodejs/LTS/issues/85).

DES-CBC-SHA is LOW cipher and disabled by default and it is used in
tests of hornorcipherorder. They are changed as to
- use RC4-SHA instead of DES-CBC-SHA.
- add ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA to entries to keep the number of ciphers.
- remove tests for non-default cipher because only SEED and IDEA are
available in !RC4:!HIGH:ALL.

Notable changes:
* openssl: Fully remove SSLv2 support, the `--enable-ssl2` command
line argument will now produce an error. The DROWN Attack
(https://drownattack.com/) creates a vulnerability where SSLv2 is
enabled by a server, even if a client connection is not using SSLv2.
The SSLv2 protocol is widely considered unacceptably broken and
should not be supported. More information is available at
https://www.openssl.org/news/vulnerabilities.html#2016-0800
Note that the upgrade to OpenSSL 1.0.1s in Node.js v0.12.11 removed
internal SSLv2 support. The change in this release was originally
intended for v0.12.11. The `--enable-ssl2` command line argument now
produces an error rather than being a no-op.
Remove support for SSLv2 because of DROWN (CVE-2016-0800).
Use of the `--enable-ssl2` flag is now an error; node will print an
error message and exit.

- Fix a double-free defect in parsing malformed DSA keys that may
potentially be used for DoS or memory corruption attacks. It is
likely to be very difficult to use this defect for a practical
attack and is therefore considered low severity for Node.js users.
More info is available at

- Fix a defect that can cause memory corruption in certain very rare
cases relating to the internal `BN_hex2bn()` and `BN_dec2bn()`
functions. It is believed that Node.js is not invoking the code
paths that use these functions so practical attacks via Node.js
using this defect are _unlikely_ to be possible. More info is

- Fix a defect that makes the CacheBleed Attack
(https://ssrg.nicta.com.au/projects/TS/cachebleed/) possible. This
defect enables attackers to execute side-channel attacks leading
to the potential recovery of entire RSA private keys. It only
affects the Intel Sandy Bridge (and possibly older)
microarchitecture when using hyper-threading. Newer
microarchitectures, including Haswell, are unaffected. More info

This commit prevents child process stdio streams from being
automatically flushed on child process exit/close if a 'readable'
event handler has been attached at the time of exit.
Without this, child process stdio data can be lost if the process
exits quickly and a `read()` (e.g. from a 'readable' handler)
hasn't had the chance to get called yet.

d1ba82af1c "fixed"
test-domain-exit-dispose-again by changing its logic to test that
process.domain was cleared properly in case an error was thrown from
a timer's callback.
However, it became clear when reviewing a recent change that refactors
lib/timers.js that it was not quite the intention of the original test.
Thus, this change adds the original implementation of
test-domain-exit-dispose-again back, with comments that make its
implementation easier to understand.
It also preserves the changes made by
d1ba82af1c, but it moves them to a new
test file named test-timers-reset-process-domain-on-throw.js.

PR #3890 [1] introduced the variable ALLOW_INSECURE_SERVER_DHPARAM defined

the build fails:
error: ‘ALLOW_INSECURE_SERVER_DHPARAM’ was not declared in this scope

test-domain-exit-dispose-again had been written for node v0.10.x, and
was using the fact that callbacks scheduled with `process.nextTick`
wouldn't run if the domain attached to it was disposed.
This is not longer the case, and as a result the test would not catch
any regression: it would always pass.
This change rewrites that test to check that the current domain is
cleared properly when processing the rest of the timers list if a
timer's callback throws an error. This makes the test fail without the
original fix, and pass with the original fix, as expected.

This is an important security release. All Node.js users should
consult the security release summary at nodejs.org for details on
patched vulnerabilities.
Notable changes:
* http: fix defects in HTTP header parsing for requests and responses
that can allow request smuggling (CVE-2016-2086) or response
splitting (CVE-2016-2216). HTTP header parsing now aligns more
closely with the HTTP spec including restricting the acceptable
characters.
* http-parser: upgrade from 2.3.0 to 2.3.1
* openssl: upgrade from 1.0.1q to 1.0.1r. To mitigate against the
Logjam attack, TLS clients now reject Diffie-Hellman handshakes with
parameters shorter than 1024-bits, up from the previous limit of
768-bits.
* src:
- introduce new `--security-revert={cvenum}` command line flag for
selective reversion of specific CVE fixes
- allow the fix for CVE-2016-2216 to be selectively reverted using
`--security-revert=CVE-2016-2216`
* build:
- xz compressed tar files will be made available from nodejs.org for
v0.12 builds from v0.12.10 onward
- A headers.tar.gz file will be made available from nodejs.org for
v0.12 builds from v0.12.10 onward, a future change to node-gyp
will be required to make use of these

The `--security-revert={cvenum}` command line flag is a special purpose
flag to be used only in stable or LTS branches when a breaking change
is required to address a security vulnerability. Whenever a vulnerability
requires a breaking change, and a CVE has been assigned, the flag can
be used to force Node to revert to the insecure behavior that was
implemented before the fix was applied.
Note that this flag is intended to be used only as a last resort in the
case a security update breaks existing code. When used, a security
warning will be printed to stderr when Node launches.
The `--security-revert={cvenum}` flag takes a single CVE number as an
argument. Multiple instances of the `--security-revert={cvenum}` flag
can be used on the command line to revert multiple changes.
Whenever a new `--security-revert={cvenum}` is enabled, it should be
documented in the release notes and in the API docs.
Master and the first release of a new major (e.g. v6.0) should not have
any reverts available.
Every time a new `--security-revert={cvenum}` is added, there should be
a semver-minor bump in the stable and LTS branch.
