Fix coverity report about possibly dereferencing
a null. If the the buffer.data != nullptr
check indicates that the buffer was null, then
relying on the value in buffer_size is no longer
safe. The later call to uv_pipe_getpeername
depends on the buffer_size being correct to
avoid deferencing buffer.data if it is not
big enough.

This doesn't look like the correct fix because buffer.data can't be null here. Also, should we use src as the subsystem instead of doc?

Good point, I must have had doc on my mind, will change while landing.

CI run looks to be complete (https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-test-pull-request/43464/) even though what's shown on the PR shows a job still running. Will land.
