Adds support for the PSS padding scheme. Until now, the sign/verify
functions used the old EVP_Sign*/EVP_Verify* OpenSSL API, making it
impossible to change the padding scheme. Fixed by first computing the
message digest and then signing/verifying with a custom EVP_PKEY_CTX,
allowing us to specify options such as the padding scheme and the PSS
salt length.

assert.fail() has two possible function signatures, both of which are
not intuitive. It virtually guarantees that people who try to use
assert.fail() without carefully reading the docs will end up using it
incorrectly.

This change maintains backwards compatibility with the two valid uses
(arguments 1 2 and 4 supplied but argument 3 falsy, and argument 3
supplied but arguments 1 2 and 4 all falsy) but also adds the far more
intuitive first-argument-only and first-two-arguments-only
possibilities.

assert.fail('boom');
// AssertionError: boom

assert.fail('a', 'b');
// AssertionError: 'a' != 'b'

assert.fail() has been updated to accept a single argument so that is no
longer an error. Remove lint rule that checks for assert.fail() with a
single argument.

common.fail() was added to paste over issues with assert.fail() function
signature. assert.fail() has been updated to accept a single argument so
common.fail() is no longer necessary.

The `.load` command would fail with any file that contains
multiline `.` operator expressions. This was particularly
noticeable when chaining promises or multi-line arrow
expressions.

This change Forces the REPL to be in `editorMode` while loading
a file from disk using the `.load` command.

The --redirect-warnings command line argument allows process warnings
to be written to a specified file rather than printed to stderr.

Also adds an equivalent NODE_REDIRECT_WARNINGS environment variable.

If the specified file cannot be opened or written to for any reason,
the argument is ignored and the warning is printed to stderr.

If the file already exists, it will be appended to.

In openssl s_client on Windows, RAND_screen() is invoked to initialize
random state but it takes several seconds in each connection.
This added -no_rand_screen to openssl s_client on Windows to skip
RAND_screen() and gets a better performance in the unit test of
test-tls-server-verify.
Do not enable this except to use in the unit test.
