[RFA/ARI fix] Remove use of abort function in common/buffer.c

["Pierre Muller" <pierre.muller@ics-cnrs.unistra.fr>]

  ARI clearly states that abort function
should never be used, and to use internal_error
instead.

  I first suspected that this was related to missing declarations in 
common directory, but internal_error does
exist there also.

  Finally, looking at common/buffer.c source, I found that
gdb_assert was probably a better fit here
(the macro does call internal_error).


  Is this patch OK or what else should we use here?

        * common/buffer.c (buffer_grow): ARI fix: Replace abort
        function call by gdb_assert macro use.
