Chris Tate d426960f45 Make Cipheriv and Decipheriv Transforms and accept function stages anywhere in pipeline()
Cipheriv and Decipheriv values are Transforms, as in Node: they can be
written and ended, piped into, used as pipeline() and stream/promises
pipeline stages, composed, read, iterated with for await, read by
stream/consumers, passed to finished(), and listened to, and their stream
properties read as in Node. Each chunk goes through the cipher's
update(), and the end pushes final() or reports its error through
'error'; writing after final() throws out of write(). The stream unit
builds a cipher's Transform on its first stream use from operations the
cipher's handle provides (ScrDynHandleOps.transform), so programs that
use ciphers without streams link as before. The cipher is a
collector-headered object behind a traced handle: its Transform's steps
hold it, and the pair is reclaimed as a cycle. Through untyped values, in
a program that uses streams, a cipher's stream properties and its on,
once, off, pipe, unpipe, read, pause, resume, setEncoding, write, end,
destroy, cork and uncork members run on its Transform; other stream
members throw a coded SC2020 error.

A Transform holds a write's callback while its readable side is at the
high-water mark and runs it at the next read, and runs it on a tick once
the readable side has ended, as Transform._write does. write() on a
PassThrough, a Transform, a Hash or a cipher used to return true however
much the readable side buffered. zlib streams applied the rule already
and keep their timing.

pipeline() accepts function stages anywhere among its streams, so runs of
async generator stages can sit on both sides of a stream. A stage can be
named by a function declaration, or a const bound to a function
expression, that nothing reassigns; its body lowers again at the
pipeline with its source typed by the pipeline. The source can also be
an array, a string, a synchronous generator object, or a synchronous
generator function without parameters: an async generator steps the
source's iterator and yields each element, and the next stage receives
each element on the same tick as with Node's for await over the source.
The runtime's function-stage entry points take a bitmask of the function
positions and one (next, read, return) helper triple for each generator
pumped into a stream, so RUNTIME_ABI_VERSION is now 25. In JavaScript,
the chunks a stage receives from the previous stage's generator read as
the strings or Buffers it yields, so their string and Buffer methods
compile.

Corpus 7055-7059 cover cipher streams in TypeScript and JavaScript, their
errors, close order and backpressure, the pipeline stages and sources
with their tick order, and Transform backpressure.
