When v8 implemented proper one-byte string support Node's internal
"binary" encoding implementation was removed in favor of it. The result
was that "binary" encoding effectively became "latin-1" encoding.
Because of this and because one-byte strings are natively supported by
v8 the buffer encoding is not deprecated and will not be removed.

Helps in implementation of #6204, where some options passed to

These options are very helpful if someone wants to pass
`options.servername` or `options.SNICallback` to securepair.

These changes affect the following functions and their synchronous
counterparts:
* fs.readFile()
* fs.writeFile()
* fs.appendFile()
If the first parameter is a uint32, it is treated as a file descriptor.
In all other cases, the original implementation is used to ensure
backwards compatibility. File descriptor ownership is never taken from
the user.
The documentation was adjusted to reflect these API changes. A note was
added to make the user aware of file descriptor ownership and the
conditions under which a file descriptor can be used by each of these
functions.
Tests were extended to test for file descriptor parameters under the
conditions noted in the relevant documentation.

ephemeral, an empty object is returned.

This adds a new check for header and trailer fields names and method
names to ensure that they conform to the HTTP token rule. If they do
not, a `TypeError` is thrown.
Previously this had an additional `strictMode` option that has been
removed in favor of making the strict check the default (and only)
behavior.
Doc and test case are included.
