tls: cli option to enable TLS key logging to file
Debugging HTTPS or TLS connections from a Node.js app with (for example) Wireshark is unreasonably difficult without the ability to get the TLS key log. In theory, the application can be modified to use the `'keylog'` event directly, but for complex apps, or apps that define there own HTTPS Agent (like npm), this is unreasonably difficult. Use of the option triggers a warning to be emitted so the user is clearly notified of what is happening and its effect.
