Description

Currently, we have operators named ThrottleTime, SampleTime, WindowTime...

I think BufferWithTime should be renamed to BufferTime. Same quesiton for BufferWithCount -> BufferCount.

Should BufferWithTimeOrCount be renamed too?

RxJS has the following naming: buffer, bufferWithCount, bufferWithTime, and bufferWithTimeOrCount

Also update tests, examples, doc and the instructions in contributing guide.

Research direction
Find all occurrences of BufferWithTime and BufferWithCount in the codebase, including tests, examples, and documentation, and rename them to BufferTime and BufferCount respectively. Also consider renaming BufferWithTimeOrCount if applicable.
