Added short aliases make-buffer / buffer? / buffer-append! / buffer->string /
buffer-length on both OCaml and JS hosts, sharing the existing StringBuffer
value type. buffer-append! auto-coerces non-strings via inspect.
Rewrote the OCaml host inspect function to walk a single shared Buffer.t
instead of allocating O(n) intermediate strings via String.concat at every
recursion level. inspect underlies sx-serialize and error-path formatting,
so this benefits the tightest serialization paths.
Median improvements (bin/bench_inspect.exe, best-of-3 of 9-run min):
tree-d8 (75KB): 5.31ms -> 1.30ms (-76%)
tree-d10 (679KB): 81.89ms -> 16.02ms (-80%)
dict-1000: 0.80ms -> 0.31ms (-61%)
list-2000: 0.74ms -> 0.33ms (-55%)
Tests: OCaml 4545 -> 4550. JS 2591 -> 2596. Zero regressions.

OCaml: StringBuffer of Buffer.t in sx_types.ml; 5 primitives in
sx_primitives.ml (make-string-buffer, string-buffer?, string-buffer-append!,
string-buffer->string, string-buffer-length); inspect case added.
JS: SxStringBuffer with array+join backend; _string_buffer marker for
typeOf dispatch and dict? exclusion (also excludes _vector from dict?).
spec/primitives.sx: 5 define-primitive entries.
17/17 tests pass on both OCaml and JS.
