* Soft-Deprecate Buffer() constructors
* Add `Buffer.from()`, `Buffer.alloc()`, and `Buffer.allocUnsafe()`
* Add `--zero-fill-buffers` command line option
* Add byteOffset and length to `new Buffer(arrayBuffer)` constructor

The assert.fail function signature has the message as the third argument
but, understandably, it is often assumed that it is the first argument
(or at least the first argument if no other arguments are passed).
This corrects the assert.fail() invocations in the Node.js tests.
Before:
assert.fail('message');
// result: AssertionError: 'message' undefined undefined
After:
assert.fail(null, null, 'message');
// result: AssertionError: message
