Details

Just the other day I got an error message on website showing SSL_ERROR_NO_CYPHER_OVERLAP. I think this is about the only place where cypher is used instead of cipher, so it would be good for consistency if the text in this message (and the internal use in the code too) is also changed into cipher.

We'd need to keep the existing name and come up with a shim to allow deprecation, then find/replace in dependent projects to make the name change stick.

The ER3 macro won't handle this gracefully, as far as I can tell.
