Chris Tate dfd19cbea6 Give socket 'data' listeners strings after setEncoding ...

After socket.setEncoding("utf8"), Node passes strings to 'data'
listeners, while @types/node types the chunk as a Buffer. An inline
listener whose chunk is typed Buffer (annotated or inferred) received a
Buffer. When a program can call setEncoding on a socket, such listeners
now take the chunk as a checked dynamic value, so console.log, typeof,
string methods and concatenation behave as in Node, and Buffer-only
methods throw Node's TypeError. Programs without setEncoding on a socket
compile to the same IR as before.
