This reverts commit  f2fe558 
(#8169) as the original
justification for the runtime-deprecation does not appear
to justify the disruption to Node’s existing ecosystem.
Futhermore, the possibility of deprecating the Buffer constructor
entirely in v8.0 might lead to people having to change their code twice.

  - Fixed `buffer.transcode()` for single-byte character
encodings to `UCS2`. (Anna Henningsen)

Promise warnings. (Anna Henningsen)

…overage (#2)
Revert version-check from previous commit  32604ba , and use Buffer constructor for converting HTML-formatted string. Looks like, nodejs isn't emitting a deprecation warning any more since v7.2.1 (nodejs/node#9529).
Mocking/Stubbing `process.version` is not only super ugly, but also super tricky. Until 8.x is released, no further changes should be necessary.
