FFI wrapper fix, docs cleanup, stale policy shortened

Node.js tightens FFI signature handling, refreshes key crypto/net docs, and reduces the stale issue window from 7 months to 3.

FFI wrappers now read signatures only once (trivikr00917ba)

DynamicLibrary.getFunction() and getFunctions() now build wrappers from metadata captured by native code instead of re-reading signature objects in JavaScript. That fixes cases where getters, proxies, or mutated signature objects could make the native and JS views disagree, and it adds coverage for the single-read behavior.

Crypto/WebCrypto docs switched from dense tables to grouped lists (panva5b27fb9)

The crypto and WebCrypto API docs were reorganized to make algorithm support easier to scan, replacing large capability tables with grouped lists by supported formats/APIs. This is mostly documentation churn, but it materially improves readability for a complex part of the API surface.

Other misc changes

  • Clarified socket.readyState descriptions in net.md and added the closed state.
  • Lowered the stale workflow thresholds from 210/240 days to 90/120 days.
