Research direction

Start with the linked Nan::TypedArrayContents documentation and inspect the existing node-addon-examples for the appropriate place for a C++ example. Add a focused example showing how to access a Typed Array, with the work complete when the example clearly demonstrates the API and follows the repository's existing example structure.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

As of Nan version 2.1.0 there exists Nan::TypedArrayContents, which assists in accessing Typed Arrays. See https://github.com/nodejs/nan/blob/master/doc/v8_misc.md#nantypedarraycontents

It would be very useful to have an example of how to use this. I could make the push request with a new example included so long as I was given some assistance with the coding.
