If there is a link in the headings, when the ToC is generated, that is
not properly linked and the square brackets are left as they are.
Even if we fix this, different parts of the heading will link to
different sections or even different pages. For example,
### What makes [`Buffer.allocUnsafe()`] and
[`Buffer.allocUnsafeSlow()`] "unsafe"?
will point to three different sections. `allocUnsafe` and
`allocUnsafeSlow` will link to their corresponding sections and all
other words actually link to the heading in the document. This could be
visually confusing.

Changes the custom inspect example to a more complex object that
actually uses the parameters of the custom inspect function. I
specifically chose a wrapper of a value called a "Box" that inspects
to "Box < inner_inspect_value >".
I also want there to be documentation explaining what the code is
actually doing. E.g., the padding replacement part is to make the
inspected value line up properly when multi-line inputs are given.
I also went with having a space between the Box's brackets and the inner
value because it matches how objects work, and that should definitely be
listed as a convention somewhere in here.
Also, the convention to shorten only when depth is less than 0, not e.g.
at 0.
But I don't know how to write the documentation for that, so I'm leaving
that to somebody who reads this message.

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)
