Adds an ArrayBuffer-based invocation path for FFI functions whose signatures are composed entirely of numeric types (i8..i64, u8..u64, f32, f64, bool, char) and/or pointer types. The JS wrapper packs arguments directly into a per-function AB via primordial DataView setters and the C++ invoker (`InvokeFunctionSB`) reads them without going through V8's `FunctionCallbackInfo`. Results are returned the same way. Pointer arguments use runtime dispatch: BigInt, null, and undefined take the fast path, while Buffer, ArrayBuffer, ArrayBufferView, and String fall back transparently to the classic `InvokeFunction` path via a stashed `_invokeSlow` function. Signatures containing non-numeric/non-pointer types also bypass the fast path. The fast path is disabled on big-endian platforms. Callers do not opt in, and the fast path is transparent in every way users should rely on. One observable change: function wrappers returned by `library.getFunction`, `library.getFunctions`, and `library.functions` now have `.length` equal to the declared parameter count rather than `0`. Code that relied on the previous value will need to be updated. Adds microbenchmarks covering the common FFI call shapes so future changes to the invoker can be evaluated: - add-i32.js: 2-arg integer - add-f64.js: 2-arg float - many-args.js: 6-arg integer - pointer-bigint.js: 1-arg pointer (BigInt) - sum-buffer.js: pointer + length (Buffer) A `common.js` helper resolves the fixture-library path from `test/ffi/fixture_library` without pulling in the test harness, and throws a clear message if the fixture hasn't been built yet. Also adds `sum_6_i32` to the fixture library for the many-args case.
