On some systems, some first bytes of allocated buffer can be zeroed
by default, so the example doesn't work well - the buffer looks zeroed

__dirname is path.dirname(__filename), but its docs, specifically the
attempt to describe javascript scope in terms of "running" and
"executing" had drifted apart. Rework to describe one as a variation of
the other, move the example, and just describe the names in terms of the
module, and it's local variables rather than the ill defined execution

Document all TLSSocket options:
- All the secure context options are valid options
to a secureContext
- isServer modifies the default value of requestCert
Describe all tls.connect() variants:
- tls.connect(path) was undocumented
- tls.connect(port) was underdocumented, and its relationship to
tls.connect(options) was obscure
Socket passed to tls.connect is user managed:
- Replace https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/8996
Add documentation to:
- describe and add tests for the pfx and key variants, and describe how
and when passphrase is used.
- describe tls cert and ca options
- describe buffer forms of tls crl option
- describe tls cipher option and defaults
- fix link to Crypto Constants
- describe that honorCipherOrder sets SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE.
- describe tls ecdhCurve/dhparam options
- describe tls secureProtocol option
- describe tls secureOptions
- describe tls sessionIdContext
De-deduplicate secure context docs:
The secure context options were documented 4 times, making it difficult
to understand where the options come from, where they are supported,
and under what conditions they are used.
The multiple copies were inconsistent and contradictory in their
descriptions of the options, and also inconsistent in whether the
options would be documented at all.
Cut through this gordian knot by linking all APIs that use the
secureContext options to the single source of truth about the options.
