ECC SSL Certificates not supported

Current behavior:

Using an ECC SSL certificate Cypress fails to load the website. The browser reports that the connection is insecure, so the certificate hasn’t loaded correctly. However, then manually opening the website on one of the Cypress browser tabs (Chrome or Electron) it loads correctly.

This is the error that is reported in the test:

We received this error at the network level:

CypressError: cy.visit() failed trying to load:

***

We attempted to make an http request to this URL but the request failed without a response.

We received this error at the network level:

  > Error: read ECONNRESET

Common situations why this would fail:
  - you don't have internet access
  - you forgot to run / boot your web server
  - your web server isn't accessible
  - you have weird network configuration settings on your computer

The stack trace for this error is:

Error: read ECONNRESET
    at _errnoException (util.js:1024:11)
    at TLSWrap.onread (net.js:615:25)

Desired behavior:

Tests to run successfully when ECC SSL certificates are being used for HTTPS.

Steps to reproduce: (app code and test code)

Install and use an ECC SSL certificate for an https based test.

I think this is the bug you’re running in to: nodejs/node#16196

Looks like certain ECC configurations are broken in our version of Node. The Electron upgrade (#4720) should resolve this issue.
