   I can't find the reference now but this was discussed some time ago on a PR. 
 The thinking for taking `capacity` into account when comparing `Buffer`'s was 
that array equality, etc. would be done at a higher level as @jorgecarleitao 
described.  I think that @sunchao, in particular, favored taking `capacity` 
into account when comparing `Buffer`'s.  i.e. this is a more low-level equality 
check.
