process: add process.getBuiltinModule(id)
process.getBuiltinModule(id) provides a way to load built-in modules in a globally available function. ES Modules that need to support other environments can use it to conditionally load a Node.js built-in when it is run in Node.js, without having to deal with the resolution error that can be thrown by import in a non-Node.js environment or having to use dynamic import() which either turns the module into an asynchronous module, or turns a synchronous API into an asynchronous one.
If id specifies a built-in module available in the current Node.js process, process.getBuiltinModule(id) method returns the corresponding built-in module. If id does not correspond to any built-in module, undefined is returned.
process.getBuiltinModule(id) accepts built-in module IDs that are recognized by module.isBuiltin(id).
The references returned by process.getBuiltinModule(id) always point to the built-in module corresponding to id even if users modify require.cache so that require(id) returns something else.

doc: doc-only deprecate OpenSSL engine-based APIs
OpenSSL 3 deprecated support for custom engines with a recommendation to switch to its new provider model.
The clientCertEngine option for https.request(), tls.createSecureContext(), and tls.createServer(); the privateKeyEngine and privateKeyIdentifier for tls.createSecureContext(); and crypto.setEngine() all depend on this functionality from OpenSSL.

inspector: fix disable async hooks on Debugger.setAsyncCallStackDepth
Debugger.setAsyncCallStackDepth was previously calling the enable function by mistake. As a result, when profiling using Chrome DevTools, the async hooks won't be turned off properly after receiving Debugger.setAsyncCallStackDepth with depth 0.
