2016-02-09, Version 0.12.10 (LTS)

This is an important security release. All Node.js users should
consult the security release summary at nodejs.org for details on
patched vulnerabilities.

Notable changes:

* http: fix defects in HTTP header parsing for requests and responses
  that can allow request smuggling (CVE-2016-2086) or response
  splitting (CVE-2016-2216). HTTP header parsing now aligns more
  closely with the HTTP spec including restricting the acceptable
  characters.
* http-parser: upgrade from 2.3.0 to 2.3.1
* openssl: upgrade from 1.0.1q to 1.0.1r. To mitigate against the
  Logjam attack, TLS clients now reject Diffie-Hellman handshakes with
  parameters shorter than 1024-bits, up from the previous limit of
  768-bits.
* src:
  - introduce new `--security-revert={cvenum}` command line flag for
    selective reversion of specific CVE fixes
  - allow the fix for CVE-2016-2216 to be selectively reverted using
    `--security-revert=CVE-2016-2216`
* build:
  - xz compressed tar files will be made available from nodejs.org for
    v0.12 builds from v0.12.10 onward
  - A headers.tar.gz file will be made available from nodejs.org for
    v0.12 builds from v0.12.10 onward, a future change to node-gyp
    will be required to make use of these
