Research direction

Start by reviewing the linked WHATWG WebIDL pull request 1311, then locate the Node.js entry points affected by its SharedArrayBuffer type change. The payload names no files or tests, so confirm the required scope and validation criteria before implementation; done means Node.js reflects the intended dedicated type.
