I somehow missed that a request to add back ArrayBuffer support was
offlist. Since quite a few specifications are using it now and TC 39 has
shown no progress on developing an alternative I was convinced to add it
back in. The responseType value is "arraybuffer". This adds a dependency
to the Typed Array specification developed at Khronos.
