Notable changes:
* streams: Fix a regression introduced in v6.8.0 in readable stream
that caused unpipe to remove the wrong stream (Anna Henningsen)
PR-URL: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/9186
This release marks the transition of Node.js v6 into Long Term Support
(LTS) with the codename 'Boron'. The v6 release line now moves in to
"Active LTS" and will remain so until April 2018. After that time it
will move in to "Maintenance" until end of life in April 2019.
This is also a security release. All Node.js users should consult the
security release summary at
https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/october-2016-security-releases/
for details on patched vulnerabilities.
Notable changes:
* crypto: Don't automatically attempt to load an OpenSSL configuration
file, from the `OPENSSL_CONF` environment variable or from the
default location for the current platform. Always triggering a
configuration file load attempt may allow an attacker to load
compromised OpenSSL configuration into a Node.js process if they are
able to place a file in a default location. (Fedor Indutny, Rod Vagg)
* node: Introduce the `process.release.lts` property, set to `"Boron"`.
This value is `"Argon"` for v4 LTS releases and `undefined` for all
other releases. (Rod Vagg)
* V8: Backport fix for CVE-2016-5172, an arbitrary memory read.
The parser in V8 mishandled scopes, potentially allowing an attacker
to obtain sensitive information from arbitrary memory locations via
crafted JavaScript code. This vulnerability would require an
attacker to be able to execute arbitrary JavaScript code in a
Node.js process. (Rod Vagg)
* **v8_inspector**: Generate a UUID for each execution of the
inspector. This provides additional security to prevent unauthorized
clients from connecting to the Node.js process via the v8_inspector
port when running with `--inspect`. Since the debugging protocol
allows extensive access to the internals of a running process, and
the execution of arbitrary code, it is important to limit
connections to authorized tools only. Vulnerability originally
reported by Jann Horn. (Eugene Ostroukhov)

* Add documentation for `--openssl-conf=file`.
* Fix openssl.cnf loading and OpenSSL init ordering
* Fix FIPS tests so `OPENSSL_CONF` is not longer usable but
`--openssl-conf` is

This commit attempts to fix one of the items in
https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/4641, which was to remove a
TODO the UDPWrap::OnSend function and share the code in that method with
StreamWrap::AfterWrite.
While looking into this addaleax pointed out that the implementations
for these two functions have diverged since the original comment
was added:
$ git log --pretty=short -u -L 357,357:src/udp_wrap.cc
$ git show cbd4033619cc45abdf878285c412bac9c3f36e4e:src/udp_wrap.cc |
grep -1 -A26 'UDPWrap::OnSend'
git show cbd4033619cc45abdf878285c412bac9c3f36e4e:src/stream_wrap.cc |
grep -A27 'void StreamWrap::AfterWrite'
Removing the TODO comment seems appropriate in this case.

`FChown` and `Chown` test that the `uid` and `gid` parameters
they receive are unsigned integers, but `Stat()` and `FStat()`
would return the corresponding fields of `uv_stat_t` as signed
integers. Applications which pass those these values directly
to `Chown` may fail
(e.g. for `nobody` on OS X, who has an `uid` of `-2`, see e.g.
https://github.com/nodejs/node-v0.x-archive/issues/5890).
This patch changes the `Integer::New()` call for `uid` and `gid`
to `Integer::NewFromUnsigned()`.
All other fields are kept as they are, for performance, but
strictly speaking the respective sizes of those
fields aren’t specified, either.
