Subject: [PATCH] buffer: fix inspect throw if slice length too long

All the Buffer#{ascii,hex,etc.}Slice() methods are intentionally strict
to alert if a Buffer instance was attempting to be accessed out of
bounds. Buffer#toString() is the more user friendly way of accessing the
data, and will coerce values to their min/max on overflow.
