buffer: backport new buffer constructor APIs
This backports the new `Buffer.alloc()`, `Buffer.allocUnsafe()`, and `Buffer.from()` APIs for v5. Also included in this backport is the change that allows fill('') to zero-fill (as opposed to doing nothing) and the additional `byteOffset` and `length` arguments for `Buffer(arrayBuffer)` and `Buffer.from(arrayBuffer)`. This backport includes the new test cases. This backport *does not* update all of the internal uses of the existing `Buffer()` constructor. This backport also *does not* include the soft deprecation of the existing `Buffer()` constructor.
