fix: replace node buffers with uint8arrays (#140)

* fix: replace node buffers with uint8arrays

All uses of node Buffers have been replaced with Uint8Arrays.

Also redundant modules have been removed from package.json

BREAKING CHANGES:

- Where node Buffers were returned, now Uint8Arrays are
- The `.buffer` property has been renamed `.bytes` similar to [email protected]

* chore: downgrade aegir
