SLC: Merge mutable.ArrayDeque into mutable.Buffer on the JVM

For reference, here is the original ArrayDeque proposal and discussion

It was first proposed by Pathrikit, but was thoroughly reviewed and discussed by JulienRF, Rex Kerr, and Stefan Zeiger, so I feel like we should have a bit more faith in the quality of the API. “They probably just didn’t think of dropInPlace operations” seems a bit silly to me, I doubt such a group review and discussion would make such trivial mistakes in the design and implementation of a Scala collection!
