Rich Trott dd5a4e1d75 tools: update ESLint to current version We have been stalled on ESLint 3.8.0 for some time. Current ESLint is 3.13.0. We have been unable to upgrade because of more aggressive reporting on some rules, including indentation. ESLint configuration options and bugfixes are now such that we can reasonably upgrade.

buffer-shims

functions to make sure the new buffer methods work in older browsers.

var bufferShim = require('buffer-shims');
bufferShim.from('foo');
bufferShim.alloc(9, 'cafeface', 'hex');
bufferShim.allocUnsafe(15);
bufferShim.allocUnsafeSlow(21);

should just use the original in newer nodes and on older nodes uses fallbacks.

Known Issues

this does not patch the buffer object, only the constructor stuff
it's actually a polyfill
