Backports the following PRs to 12.x-staging:

Both of these PRs are necessary to have a successful build on 12.x-staging. See #32131 (comment) and #32131 (comment) to understand the context.

Checklist
  • make -j4 test (UNIX), or vcbuild test (Windows) passes
  • documentation is changed or added
  • commit message follows commit guidelines

They fail on OS X 10.15 (aka "Catalina"), but pass on earlier OS X.

Our documentation uses em dashes inconsistently. They are treated
inconsistently typographically too. (For example, they are sometimes
surrounded by spaces and sometimes not.) They are also often confused
with ordinary hyphens such as in the CHANGELOG, where they are
inadvertently mixed together in a single list. The difference is
not obvious in the raw markdown but is very noticeable when rendered,
appearing to be a typographical error (which it in fact is).

The em dash is never needed. There are always alternatives. Remove em
dashes entirely.

It looks like Travis CI failed due to timeout in compilation phase. I've already seen such failure here: #32131 (comment)

Both compilation and tests run successfully on my machine.

It seems that there are some flaky tests remaining in v12.x-staging:

Is there something I should do here or this PR is ready to land? I have no experience with backports in core, so that's why I'm asking.

Once a 12.x release is being prepared, someone on @nodejs/releasers will start landing these. I don't think there's anything to do here other than wait. Since 12.x is an LTS release, only releasers are supposed to land stuff to the 12.x-staging branch.

@Trott thanks for the clarification. Then I'll be waiting for a releaser on this one. Once this one is merged, I'll be unblocked with #32131 and that PR will be able to have a successful CI build.
