Buffer uses the same concept as package, but adds its own additional length.
Therefore I've added build_prepend_int(),
I can create build_buffer() and mimic build_package()
but it won't change picture.
As for moving to to another file, during all this series lowlevel
build_(some_aml_related_costruct_helper)s are moved into this file
and should be make static to hide from user lowlevel helpers
(including build_package).
That will leave only high level API available.
TODO for me: make sure that moved lowlevel helpers are static
