Make the byteLength work correctly when input is Buffer.
e.g:
```js
// The incomplete unicode string
Buffer.byteLength(new Buffer([0xe4, 0xb8, 0xad, 0xe6, 0x96]))
```
The old output: 9
The new output: 5

common.js needs to be loaded in all tests so that there is checking
for variable leaks and possibly other things. However, it does not
need to be assigned to a variable if nothing in common.js is referred
to elsewhere in the test.

As `raw` and `raws` encodings are deprecated for such a long time, and
they both are undocumented, this patch removes the support for those
encodings completely.

Buffer.byteLength is important for speed because it is called whenever a
new Buffer is created from a string.
This commit optimizes Buffer.byteLength execution by:
- moving base64 length calculation into JS-land, which is now much
faster
- remove redundant code and streamline the UTF8 length calculation
It also adds a benchmark and better tests.
