buffer: strip high bits when converting to ascii

buffer: strip high bits when converting to ascii

Consider the following example:

  console.log(Buffer('ú').toString('ascii'));

Before this commit, the contents of the buffer was used as-is and hence it
prints 'ú'.

Now, it prints 'C:'. Perhaps not much of an improvement but it conforms to what
the documentation says it does: strip off the high bits.

Fixes #4371.
