1. tls: add --tls-cipher-list command line switch …

   This adds a new `--tls-cipher-list` command line switch
   that can be used to override the built-in default cipher
   list. The intent of this is to make it possible to enforce
   an alternative default cipher list at the process level.
   Overriding the default cipher list is still permitted at
   the application level by changing the value of
   `require('tls').DEFAULT_CIPHERS`.
   
   As part of the change, the built in default list is moved
   out of tls.js and into node_constants.h and node_constants.cc.
   Two new constants are added to require('constants'):
   
     * defaultCipherList (the active default cipher list)
     * defaultCoreCipherList (the built-in default cipher list)
   
   A test case and doc changes are included.
   
   A new NODE_DEFINE_STRING_CONSTANT macro is also created in
   node_internals.h
   
   When node_constants is initialized, it will pick up either
   the passed in command line switch or fallback to the default
   built-in suite.
   
   Within joyent/node, this change had originaly been wrapped
   up with a number of other related commits involving the
   removal of the RC4 cipher. This breaks out this isolated
   change.
