The fourth positional argument of `createCipherBase` is `true` when
called from within the `Cipheriv` constructor and `false`when called
from within the `Decipheriv` constructor. This value is then passed to
the `CipherBase::New()` method, which treats it as follows:
args[0]->IsTrue() ? kCipher : kDecipher
However, the current name of said positional argument is `decipher` and
thus indicates the exact opposite: when the argument is set to true, the
instance is *not* a `Decipheriv` object. Therefore, this commit renames
the argument to `isEncrypt`, which matches the actual semantics.

Internal Modules
The modules located in lib/internal directory are exclusively meant
for internal usage within the Node.js core. They are not intended to
be accessed via user modules require(). These modules may change at
any point in time. Relying on these internal modules outside the core
is not supported and can lead to unpredictable behavior.
In certain scenarios, accessing these internal modules for debugging or
experimental purposes might be necessary. Node.js provides the --expose-internals
flag to expose these modules to userland code. This flag only exists to
assist Node.js maintainers with debugging internals. It is not meant for
use outside the project.
