src: re-add Realloc() shrink after reading stream data
This would otherwise keep a lot of unused memory lying around,
and in particular add up to a page per chunk of memory overhead
for network reads, potentially opening a DoS vector if the resulting
`Buffer` objects are kept around indefinitely (e.g. stored in a list
and not concatenated until the socket finishes).

This fixes CVE-2018-7164.
