/*
 *  Document-class: IO::Buffer
 *
 *  IO::Buffer is a low-level efficient buffer for input/output. There are three
 *  ways of using buffer:
 *
 *  * Create an empty buffer with ::new, fill it with data using #copy or
 *    #set_value, #set_string, get data with #get_string;
 *  * Create a buffer mapped to some string with ::for, then it could be used
 *    both for reading with #get_string or #get_value, and writing (writing will
 *    change the source string, too);
 *  * Create a buffer mapped to some file with ::map, then it could be used for
 *    reading and writing the underlying file.
 *
 *  Interaction with string and file memory is performed by efficient low-level
 *  C mechanisms like `memcpy`.
 *
 *  The class is meant to be an utility for implementing more high-level mechanisms
 *  like Fiber::SchedulerInterface#io_read and Fiber::SchedulerInterface#io_write.
 *
 *  <b>Examples of usage:</b>
 *
 *  Empty buffer:
 *
 *    buffer = IO::Buffer.new(8)  # create empty 8-byte buffer
 *    #  =>
 *    # #<IO::Buffer 0x0000555f5d1a5c50+8 INTERNAL>
 *    # ...
 *    buffer
 *    #  =>
 *    # <IO::Buffer 0x0000555f5d156ab0+8 INTERNAL>
 *    # 0x00000000  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
 *    buffer.set_string('test', 2) # put there bytes of the "test" string, starting from offset 2
 *    # => 4
 *    buffer.get_string  # get the result
 *    # => "\x00\x00test\x00\x00"
 *
 *  \Buffer from string:
 *
 *    string = 'data'
 *    buffer = IO::Buffer.for(str)
 *    #  =>
 *    # #<IO::Buffer 0x00007f3f02be9b18+4 SLICE>
 *    # ...
 *    buffer
 *    #  =>
 *    # #<IO::Buffer 0x00007f3f02be9b18+4 SLICE>
 *    # 0x00000000  64 61 74 61                                     data
 *
 *    buffer.get_string(2)  # read content starting from offset 2
 *    # => "ta"
 *    buffer.set_string('---', 1) # write content, starting from offset 1
 *    # => 3
 *    buffer
 *    #  =>
 *    # #<IO::Buffer 0x00007f3f02be9b18+4 SLICE>
 *    # 0x00000000  64 2d 2d 2d                                     d---
 *    string  # original string changed, too
 *    # => "d---"
 *
 *  \Buffer from file:
 *
 *    File.write('test.txt', 'test data')
 *    # => 9
 *    buffer = IO::Buffer.map(File.open('test.txt'))
 *    #  =>
 *    # #<IO::Buffer 0x00007f3f0768c000+9 MAPPED IMMUTABLE>
 *    # ...
 *    buffer.get_string(5, 2) # read 2 bytes, starting from offset 5
 *    # => "da"
 *    buffer.set_string('---', 1) # attempt to write
 *    # in `set_string': Buffer is not writable! (IO::Buffer::AccessError)
 *
 *    # To create writable file-mapped buffer
 *    # Open file for read-write, pass size, offset, and flags=0
 *    buffer = IO::Buffer.map(File.open('test.txt', 'r+'), 9, 0, 0)
 *    buffer.set_string('---', 1)
 *    # => 3 -- bytes written
 *    File.read('test.txt')
 *    # => "t--- data"
 *
 *  <b>The class is experimental and the interface is subject to change.</b>
