The phrasing "pre Node.js v0.10" is not grammatical, as "pre" is not a
word. This also changes "Node.js v0.10" to "Node.js 0.10". We dropped
use of the "v" prefix in prose some time ago to avoid confusion as to
whether "v8" referred to the V8 JavaScript engine or Node.js 8.x.

According to the
[NodeJS CCM example](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v14.x/api/crypto.html#crypto_ccm_mode],
when decrypting the `plaintextLength` parameter actually refers to the
ciphertext length, not the plaintext length:
```
decipher.setAAD(aad, {
plaintextLength: ciphertext.length
});
```
The same can be seen in the
[OpenSSL docs](https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/EVP_Authenticated_Encryption_and_Decryption)
where a call to `EVP_DecryptUpdate` passes the ciphertext length:
```
/* Provide the total ciphertext length */
if(1 != EVP_DecryptUpdate(ctx, NULL, &len, NULL, ciphertext_len))
handleErrors();
```
This parameter probably should have been called `inputLength` or
`bufferLength` instead of `plaintextLength`, so that it makes sense
both when encrypting and decrypting, but at least we can correct the
sentence in the documentation for now to refer to the correct value.

Calling `decipher.setAuthTag` after `decipher.update` will result in
an error like `Unsupported state or unable to authenticate data`.
The example code in
[CCM mode](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v14.x/api/crypto.html#crypto_ccm_mode)

can take the same example and move the `setAuthTag` call to in between
`update` and `final` you will see the error.

ECMAScript Modules - Experimental Warning Removal:
- module: remove experimental modules warning
(Guy Bedford) [#31974](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/31974)
In Node.js 13 we removed the need to include the --experimental-modules
flag, but when running EcmaScript Modules in Node.js, this would still
result in a warning ExperimentalWarning: The ESM module loader is
experimental.
As of Node.js 14 there is no longer this warning when using ESM in
Node.js. However, the ESM implementation in Node.js remains
experimental. As per our stability index: “The feature is not subject
to Semantic Versioning rules. Non-backward compatible changes or
removal may occur in any future release.” Users should be cautious when
using the feature in production environments.
Please keep in mind that the implementation of ESM in Node.js differs
from the developer experience you might be familiar with. Most
transpilation workflows support features such as optional file
extensions or JSON modules that the Node.js ESM implementation does not
support. It is highly likely that modules from transpiled environments
will require a certain degree of refactoring to work in Node.js. It is
worth mentioning that many of our design decisions were made with two
primary goals. Spec compliance and Web Compatibility. It is our belief
that the current implementation offers a future proof model to
authoring ESM modules that paves the path to Universal JavaScript.
Please read more in our documentation.
The ESM implementation in Node.js is still experimental but we do believe
that we are getting very close to being able to call ESM in Node.js
“stable”. Removing the warning is a huge step in that direction.
