2018-04-12build, win: opt-in openssl_no_asm if no nasm foundShigeki Ohtsu
Instead of automatically falling back to openssl_no_asm with warning if no nasm is found during build on Windows, this stops vcbuild.bat and requires users to specify openssl_no_asm option explicitly. Fixes: https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/19918 PR-URL: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/19943 Refs: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/19930 Reviewed-By: Ben Noordhuis <info@bnoordhuis.nl> Reviewed-By: James M Snell <jasnell@gmail.com> Reviewed-By: Rod Vagg <rod@vagg.org> Reviewed-By: Bartosz Sosnowski <bartosz@janeasystems.com>
2018-04-10build, tools, win: add nasm detection for OpenSSLJoão Reis
OpenSSL-1.1.0 requires the nasm assembler for building asm files on Windows. This finds nasm at \Program Files\NASM\nasm.exe or \ProgramFiles(x86)\NASM\nasm.exe in vcbuild.bat for users who did not add its path in their enviroments.

2018-04-10build: add OpenSSL-1.1.0 supportShigeki Ohtsu
- For Windows, nasm is new build requirements and openssl_no_asm is set to 1 with warning if it is not installed. - For use of openssl assemble codes, either gas_version >= 2.23, xcode_version >= 5.0 ,llvm_version >= 3.3 or nasm_version >= 2.10 is needed. Otherwise, openssl_no_asm is set to 1 with warning. - FIPS is not supported in OpenSSL-1.1.0 so that it leads an error when openssl_fips options is enabled in configure.

Currently, there are a number of popups that get displayed when running the tests asking to accept incoming network connections. Rules can be added manually to the socket firewall on Mac OS X but getting this right might not be obvious and quite a lot of time can be wasted trying to get the rules right. This script hopes to simplify things a little so that it can be re-run when needed.
