+Returns a new `Buffer` that references the same memory as the original, but
+offset and cropped by the `start` and `end` indices.
+
+This is the same behavior as `buf.subarray()`.
+
+This method is not compatible with the `Uint8Array.prototype.slice()`,
+which is a superclass of `Buffer`. To copy the slice, use
+`Uint8Array.prototype.slice()`.

+```js
+const buf = Buffer.from('buffer');

+copiedBuf[0]++;
