+Checks if a value is a Node.js Buffer instance.

+`Buffer` extends `Uint8Array` and is specific to Node.js, Bun, and Deno.
+In browser-only environments where `Buffer` is not defined, this function
+always returns `false`.
+
+Useful for filtering or type-narrowing in a functional pipeline:
+`values.filter(isBuffer)`
+
+```typescript
+import { isBuffer } from '@helpers4/node';
+
+isBuffer(value: unknown): value is Buffer<ArrayBufferLike>
+```
+
+**Parameters:**
+
+- `value: unknown` — The value to check
+
+**Returns:** `value is Buffer<ArrayBufferLike>` — True if value is a Buffer
+
+**Examples:**
+
+*Detect a Node.js Buffer*
+
+Returns true only for Buffer instances. Uint8Array is not a Buffer.
+
+```typescript
+isBuffer(Buffer.from('hello')) // => true
+isBuffer(new Uint8Array(8))    // => false
+isBuffer('hello')              // => false
+```
+
+*Filter Buffers from a mixed array*
+
+Use as a predicate in .filter() to extract Buffer values.
+
+```typescript
+const values = [Buffer.from('a'), 'text', Buffer.alloc(4), 42];

+// => [Buffer, Buffer]
