Expose array buffer replacement

[gatesn]

Rationale for this change

I want to move array buffers between devices, but keep the same array tree.

⚠️ Unknown Walltime execution environment detected

Using the Walltime instrument on standard Hosted Runners will lead to inconsistent data.

For the most accurate results, we recommend using CodSpeed Macro Runners: bare-metal machines fine-tuned for performance measurement consistency.

don't quite get this? It's just so you can add the method and assert that it panics?

[robert3005]

ok no there are some implementations, I thought everything is this

[robert3005]

Shouldn't this be truly with_buffers just like with slots? Try to mutate in place and only make a copy if it fails? Then we cannot take view but typed Array

[robert3005]

we can add unchecked variants later
