Electron recently dropped support for external
buffers. Provide a way for addon authors to:
- hide the methods to create external buffers so they can
avoid using them if they want the broadest compatibility.
- call the methods that create external buffers at runtime
to check if external buffers are supported and either
use them or not based on the return code.
