Also, secureOptions flag was added (and passed through) and allows
the context to have all supported SSL_OP_* set via createCredentials.
All SSL_OP_ flags (outside of ALL) have been added to constants.
Problem: Sometimes it is useful to read a file from a certain position
to it's end. The current implementation was already perfectly capable
of this, but decided to throw an error when the user tried to omit
the end option. The only way to do this, was to pass {end: Infinity}.
Solution: Automatically assume {end: Infinity} when omitted, and remove
the previous exception thrown. Also updated the docs.

However, this test is failing for some quite unrelated issue.
Getting some odd "socket hangup" crashes, and only the first request
ever makes it to the server.
Calling resume() immediately after calling pause() would trigger
a race condition where it would try to read() from a file
descriptor that was already being read from, causing an EBADF
setImplementationMethods checks the type of a socket and defines different
behavior based on the type, so auto detect it if type not implicitly
specified.
Since "error" events will throw when unhandled anyhow, it makes no sense
to throw from an EventEmitter's method, especially for such a minor
misdemeanor as attempting to write to a non-writable stream.
This does 3 things:
1. Delimiters and "unwise" characters are never included in the
hostname or path.
2. url.format will sanitize string URLs that are passed to it.
3. The parsed url's 'href' member will be the sanitized url, which may
not match the argument to url.parse.
