The use of dashes -- in general, but especially in our docs -- can be
problematic. It is used inconsistently and there is always another form
of punctuation that is as good or better for the situation. In an effort
to reduce the number of variations we use to display the same types of
information, remove the various uses of dashes from the documentation.

WriteStream.open() and ReadStream.open() are undocumented internal

always be opened through their corresponding factory methods
(fs.createWriteStream() and fs.createReadStream()) or by passing a file

At the collaborator summit in Berlin, the behaviour of
`worker.terminate()` was discussed.
In particular, switching from a callback-based to a Promise-based API
was suggested. While investigating that possibility later, it was
discovered that `.terminate()` was unintentionally synchronous up
until now (including calling its callback synchronously).
Also, the topic of its stability has been brought up. I have performed
two manual reviews of the native codebase for compatibility with
`.terminate()`, and performed some manual fuzz testing with the test
suite. At this point, bugs with `.terminate()` should, in my opinion,
be treated like bugs in other Node.js features.
(It is possible to make Node.js crash with `.terminate()` by messing
with internals and/or built-in prototype objects, but that is already
the case without `.terminate()` as well.)
This commit:
- Makes `.terminate()` an asynchronous operation.
- Makes `.terminate()` return a `Promise`.
- Runtime-deprecates passing a callback.
- Removes a warning about its stability from the documentation.
- Eliminates an unnecessary extra function from the C++ code.
A possible alternative to returning a `Promise` would be to keep the
method synchronous and just drop the callback. Generally, providing
an asynchronous API does provide us with a bit more flexibility.

* tls:

* module:
* Added the `createRequire()` method. It allows to create a require
function from a file URL object, a file URL string or an absolute
path string. The existing `createRequireFromPath()` method is now
deprecated https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/27405.
* Throw on `require('./path.mjs')`. This is technically a breaking
change that should have landed with Node.js 12.0.0. It is necessary
to have this to keep the possibility for a future minor version to
load ES Modules with the require function.

This does not seem to be very user friendly as it's certainly an

trying to resolve the file otherwise, throw an error immediately to
improve the user experience.
To keep it backwards compatible `index.js` files in the same directory
as the `package.json` will continue to be resolved instead but that
behavior is now deprecated.
