Caleb Kniffen 38b385969b feat: remove Buffer support and bundle polyfill (#2526)
- Removes need for bundlers to polyfill the `Buffer` class. `UInt8Array` are used instead which are native to the browser and node.
- Reduces bundle size 7.1kb gzipped and eliminates 4 runtime dependencies: `base-x`, `base64-js`, `buffer`, and `ieee754`.

BREAKING CHANGE: All methods that previously took a `Buffer` now accept a `UInt8Array`.

# @xrplf/isomorphic
A collection of isomorphic implementations of crypto and utility functions.
Browser implementations of cryptographic functions use `@noble/hashes` and `crypto` for node .
### Hashes
All hash functions operate similarly to `@noble/hashes` and have the following properties:
- They can be called directly by providing a Uint8Array or string which will be converted into a UInt8Array via UTF-8 encoding (not hex).
- They all return a UInt8Array.
```
function hash(message: Uint8Array | string): Uint8Array;
hash(new Uint8Array([1, 3]));
hash('string') == hash(new TextEncoder().encode('string'));
```
All hash functions can be constructed via `hash.create()` method:
- The result is `Hash` subclass instance, which has `update()` and `digest()` methods.
- `digest()` finalizes the hash and makes it no longer usable
```typescript
hash
.create()
.update(new Uint8Array([1, 3]))
.digest();
```
### `@xrplf/isomorphic/ripemd160`
```typescript
import { ripemd160 } from '@xrplf/isomorphic/ripemd160';
const hashA = ripemd160('abc');
const hashB = ripemd160
.create()
.update(Uint8Array.from([1, 2, 3]))
.digest();
```
### `@xrplf/isomorphic/sha256`
```typescript
import { sha256 } from '@xrplf/isomorphic/sha256';
const hashA = sha256('abc');
const hashB = sha256
.create()
.update(Uint8Array.from([1, 2, 3]))
.digest();
```
### `@xrplf/isomorphic/sha512`
```typescript
import { sha512 } from '@xrplf/isomorphic/sha512';
const hashA = sha512('abc');
const hashB = sha512
.create()
.update(Uint8Array.from([1, 2, 3]))
.digest();
```
## Utilities
### `@xrplf/isomorphic/utils`
#### randomBytes
Create an UInt8Array of the supplied size
```typescript
import { randomBytes } from @xrplf/isomorphic/utils
console.log(randomBytes(12)) // Uint8Array(12) [95, 236, 188, 55, 208, 128, 161, 249, 171, 57, 141, 7]
```
#### bytesToHex
Convert an UInt8Array to hex.
```typescript
import { bytesToHex } from @xrplf/isomorphic/utils
console.log(bytesToHex([222, 173, 190, 239])) // "DEADBEEF"
```
#### hexToBytes
Convert hex to an UInt8Array.
```typescript
import { hexToBytes } from @xrplf/isomorphic/utils
console.log(hexToBytes('DEADBEEF')) // [222, 173, 190, 239]
```
#### hexToString
Converts hex to its string equivalent. Useful to read the Domain field and some Memos.
```typescript
import { hexToString } from @xrplf/isomorphic/utils
console.log(hexToString('6465616462656566D68D')) // "deadbeef֍"
```
#### stringToHex
Converts a utf-8 to its hex equivalent. Useful for Memos.
```typescript
import { stringToHex } from @xrplf/isomorphic/utils
console.log(stringToHex('deadbeef֍')) // "6465616462656566D68D"
```
### `@xrplf/isomorphic/ws`
```typescript
import WebSocket from '@xrplf/isomorphic/ws'
const socket = new WebSocket('wss://localhost:8080')
```
