vim-patch:9.1.0934: hard to view an existing buffer in the preview window (#31605)

Problem:  hard to view an existing buffer in the preview window
Solution: add the :pbuffer command (Yinzuo Jiang)

Similar as `:pedit` and `:buffer` command. `:pbuffer` edits buffer [N]
from the buffer list in the preview window.

`:pbuffer` can also open special buffer, for example terminal buffer.

closes: vim/vim#16222
