doc: make Web Crypto example spec compliant by tniessen · Pull Request #41556 · nodejs/node

@tniessen 

subtle.sign is not supposed to support strings, and in most Web Crypto
implementations, it does not. Passing a string as the 'data' argument
only works in Node.js, and users should not rely on that oddity. The
Web Crypto spec requires the data argument to be a BufferSource, i.e.,
an ArrayBuffer or an ArrayBufferView.
