Introduce the Array Buffer C API (#2161)

Add C API to work with Array Buffers.
The following methods are added:
- jerry_value_is_arraybuffer
- jerry_create_arraybuffer
- jerry_arraybuffer_write
- jerry_arraybuffer_read
- jerry_get_arraybuffer_byte_length

+**Summary**
+
+Copy the portion of the ArrayBuffer into a user provided buffer.

+The number bytes to be read can be specified via the `buf_size`
+parameter. It is not possible to read more than the length of
