/* A buffer is a chunk of memory stored outside the V8 heap, mirrored by an

* object in javascript. The object is not totally opaque, one can access

* individual bytes with [] and slice it into substrings or sub-buffers

* without copying memory.

* // return an ascii encoded string - no memory iscopied

* buffer.asciiSlide(0, 3)

* // returns another buffer - no memory is copied

* buffer.slice(0, 3)

* Interally, each javascript buffer object is backed by a "struct buffer"

* object. These "struct buffer" objects are either a root buffer (in the

* case that buffer->root == NULL) or slice objects (in which case

* buffer->root != NULL). A root buffer is only GCed once all its slices

* are GCed.
