Edward Betts ea4980a5d7 Fix European trip return heuristic for weekend location tracking
Adjust European short trip heuristic from >3 days to >1 day to correctly
detect when user has returned home from European trips. This fixes the
April 29-30, 2023 case where the location incorrectly showed "Sankt Georg, Hamburg"
instead of "Bristol" when the user was free (no events scheduled) after
the foss-north trip ended on April 27.

The previous logic required more than 3 days to pass before assuming
return home from European countries, but for short European trips by
rail/ferry, users typically return within 1-2 days.

# Buffer From
A [ponyfill](https://ponyfill.com) for `Buffer.from`, uses native implementation if available.
## Installation
```sh
npm install --save buffer-from
```
## Usage
```js
const bufferFrom = require('buffer-from')
console.log(bufferFrom([1, 2, 3, 4]))
//=> <Buffer 01 02 03 04>
const arr = new Uint8Array([1, 2, 3, 4])
console.log(bufferFrom(arr.buffer, 1, 2))
//=> <Buffer 02 03>
console.log(bufferFrom('test', 'utf8'))
//=> <Buffer 74 65 73 74>
const buf = bufferFrom('test')
console.log(bufferFrom(buf))
//=> <Buffer 74 65 73 74>
```
## API
### bufferFrom(array)
- `array` &lt;Array&gt;
Allocates a new `Buffer` using an `array` of octets.
### bufferFrom(arrayBuffer[, byteOffset[, length]])
- `arrayBuffer` &lt;ArrayBuffer&gt; The `.buffer` property of a TypedArray or ArrayBuffer
- `byteOffset` &lt;Integer&gt; Where to start copying from `arrayBuffer`. **Default:** `0`
- `length` &lt;Integer&gt; How many bytes to copy from `arrayBuffer`. **Default:** `arrayBuffer.length - byteOffset`
When passed a reference to the `.buffer` property of a TypedArray instance, the
newly created `Buffer` will share the same allocated memory as the TypedArray.
The optional `byteOffset` and `length` arguments specify a memory range within
the `arrayBuffer` that will be shared by the `Buffer`.
### bufferFrom(buffer)
- `buffer` &lt;Buffer&gt; An existing `Buffer` to copy data from
Copies the passed `buffer` data onto a new `Buffer` instance.
### bufferFrom(string[, encoding])
- `string` &lt;String&gt; A string to encode.
- `encoding` &lt;String&gt; The encoding of `string`. **Default:** `'utf8'`
Creates a new `Buffer` containing the given JavaScript string `string`. If
provided, the `encoding` parameter identifies the character encoding of
`string`.
