crypto: remove ALPN_ENABLED
This constant was likely introduced for feature detection, but it has
been pointless for a long time.
1. I am not aware of any possible Node.js build configuration (on any
recent/supported release line) that would have crypto.constants but
not crypto.constants.ALPN_ENABLED.
2. There is no evidence of this constant being used for feature
detection in the ecosystem. In fact, both internal and external type
definitions for crypto.constants simply assume that the constant
exists.
3. There is no good reason for any modern TLS stack to not support ALPN.
It looks like ALPN might have been optional in much earlier versions
of OpenSSL, but all recent versions of OpenSSL unconditionally
support ALPN as far as I can tell.
