crypto: support RFC 2818 compatible checkHost #41569

  1. crypto: support RFC 2818 compatible checkHost

    The 'subject' option should not only accept the values 'always' and
    'never' because neither is compatible with RFC 2818, i.e., HTTPS. This
    change adds a third value 'default', which implies the behavior that
    HTTPS mandates.
    
    The new 'default' case matches the default behavior of OpenSSL for both
    DNS names and email addresses.
    
    Future Node.js versions should change the default option value from
    'always' to 'default'.
