doc: add documentation on porting from Buffer(arg) usage #19827
Description
Activity
I think the best place is a medium blog post or a guide https://nodejs.org/en/docs/guides. Or both.

I created a pull request with some improvements, but nothing that changes the actual meaning of any text significantly. ChALkeR/safer-buffer#5
@fhinkel In the TSC meeting, we agreed to give this doc editing until today and then hand it off to...you, was it? I obviously did not get to go over this as thoroughly as I had hoped, but if someone else has more time and/or energy, great! If we can publish it somewhere that others can continue to edit and improve it, then I think it's ship-able. (I'm almost sorry that we don't have the nodejs repo wiki anymore.)

on May 30, 2018 Hey, should this issue actually be closed or stay open? It was just weird that a commit from the wrong repo closed it.
Closed.

As previously discussed, it would be great if we could provide that instructions somewhere (docs, news, medium, whatever).
I made an initial draft in my repo here: Porting-Buffer.md, and @addaleax contributed significant parts of it.
What would be the next steps to discuss it and fix it so that it could be included somewhere?
I guess that needs to be done in time for 10.0 release.
Also: comments/patches to the doc at its current state are welcomed.
