Modifies `CBuffer` to use Buffer instead of Array.
A modified CBuffer which uses Buffer for storage, instead of Array.
npm install @jamesarlow/cbuffer
The module is the class. Use it with new.
See CBuffer for underlying methods. This module class extends that one.
The following methods are enhanced to accept a variadic list of Strings, Buffers, and/or Arrays of byte value integers.
* push : add data to back of content
* unshift : add data to the front of content.
The following method is enhanced to accept a parameter that defines the width of the operation, and returns the result in a buffer if the width is greater than 1.
* shift : cut data from the front of content.

const CircularBuffer = require('@jw/cbuffer')
let cb = new CircularBuffer()
let symbolA = [240,157,156,156]
cb.push("Alpha", ' ', symbolA)
cb.toString()
// => 'alpha 𝜜'
cb.shift(5)
// => 'alpha'
cb.toString()
// => ' 𝜜'
cb.unshift('a')
cb.toString()
// => 'a 𝜜'

I reused the other module for a working baseline, but most of it can be brought together and simplified. I will probably
merge the two code bases and remove the dependency.
