get(filePath) no longer returning a buffer

EDIT: This has been resolved in this commit. Leaving open until 9.0.1 is live.

Windows 10 Node 16.14.0 ssh2-sftp-client 9.0.0 (working in 8.1.0)

Running ssh2-sftp-client 9.0.0 and attempting a simple get() call in hopes of receiving a buffer.

let buf = await sftp.get(filePath); console.log('Buffer: ' + Buffer.isBuffer(buf )); // true in 8.1, false 9.0

Good catch!

Problem was a timing issue between calls to resolve(). The call to resolve which returns the writer object was firing before the call to resolve which returns the concat-stream buffer object. So the buffer of data you were after was being returned, but inside of a concat-stream object instead of just the buffer itself.

Have pushed a fix to master. Would be good if you could try it out and see if it addresses your issue. If it does, I will push out 9.0.1
