Debugging HTTPS or TLS connections from a Node.js app with (for example)
Wireshark is unreasonably difficult without the ability to get the TLS
key log. In theory, the application can be modified to use the
`'keylog'` event directly, but for complex apps, or apps that define
there own HTTPS Agent (like npm), this is unreasonably difficult.
Use of the option triggers a warning to be emitted so the user is
clearly notified of what is happening and its effect.

The use of dashes -- in general, but especially in our docs -- can be
problematic. It is used inconsistently and there is always another form
of punctuation that is as good or better for the situation. In an effort
to reduce the number of variations we use to display the same types of
information, remove the various uses of dashes from the documentation.

Adds the ability to `import` or `require` a package from within its
own source code. This allows tests and examples to be written using
the package name, making them easier to reuse by consumers of the
package.
Assuming the `name` field in `package.json` is set to `my-pkg`, its
test could use `require('my-pkg')` or `import 'my-pkg'` even if
there's no `node_modules/my-pkg` while testing the package itself.
An important difference between this and relative specifiers like
`require('../')` is that self-references use the public interface
of the package as defined in the `exports` field while relative
specifiers don't.
This behavior is guarded by a new experimental flag
(`--experimental-resolve-self`).

Intl-related APIs may return different values than before
(Richard Lau).

interval of the CPU profiler started by --cpu-prof from the command
line. Also adjust the interval to 100 in test-cpu-prof.js to make

more likely on powerful machines when the interval was 1000.
