9d94cc584e buffer: standardize array index check
ParseArrayIndex() was requesting a Uint32Value(), but assigning it to an
in32_t. This caused slight differences in error message reported in edge
cases of argument parsing. Fixed by getting the IntegerValue() before
checking if the value is < 0. Added test of API that was affected.
