crypto: remove Node.js-specific Web Crypto API extensions

[panva]

This PR removes Node.js specific extensions from Web Crypto API.

• Removes 'NODE-DSA', 'NODE-DH', and 'NODE-SCRYPT' algorithms.
• Removes 'node.keyObject' import/export format.

These extensions are not portable and the crypto Issues and PRs related to the crypto subsystem. module accomodates their functionality.

After this cleanup the webcrypto module has a clearer path to stable stability status.

NB: src code cleanup will follow in a separate PR.

could NODE-ED25519 theoretically be an alias of Ed25519? i'm not very familiar with the differences

NODE-ED25519 was removed from webcrypto in #42507. The difference was not only in the name of the algorithm.

How is this PR not semver-major? It removes things.

How is this PR not semver-major? It removes things.

The webcrypto module is experimental Issues and PRs related to experimental features. .

Ah, thanks for clarifying.

How is this PR not semver-major? It removes things.

If you need to write code that supports both Node 18.4.0 and earlier version, you can try my library:
@yoursunny/webcrypto-ed25519.

It exports an Ed25519Algorithm variable that is { name: "Ed25519" } for Node 18.4.0 or { name: "NODE-ED25519", namedCurve: "NODE-ED25519" } for Node 18.3.0 and earlier.
Pass this variable to Web Crypto API instead of the algorithm object, and you can support both versions.
