Revert "buffer: runtime deprecation of calling Buffer without new"
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This reverts commit f2fe558
(#8169) as the original

to justify the disruption to Node’s existing ecosystem.
Futhermore, the possibility of deprecating the Buffer constructor
entirely in v8.0 might lead to people having to change their code twice.
