This PR both clarifies the ciphers option for tls connections and makes tls.createSecureContext() throw (with an OpenSSL error message) if ciphers is not acceptable.

It may be worth mimicking this same behavior for other setter functions. While most others at least throw a generic error (while SetCiphers() silently ignored the return value when setting ciphers), I think tweaking those to include the OpenSSL error may be more helpful.

I realise this is an existing pattern but you can just return ThrowCryptoError(env, err, "Failed to set ciphers"); - it will use the message when err == 0. Either way is fine though, it's the kind of cleanup that can wait for another PR.
