Aligns the functionality of SlowBuffer with the new Buffer
constructor API. Next step is to docs-only deprecate
SlowBuffer.
Replace the internal uses of SlowBuffer with
`Buffer.allocUnsafeSlow(size)`

ParseArrayIndex() was requesting a Uint32Value(), but assigning it to an
in32_t. This caused slight differences in error message reported in edge
cases of argument parsing. Fixed by getting the IntegerValue() before
checking if the value is < 0. Added test of API that was affected.
