/**
* Allows saving data to a file, while handling all the input/output on a
* background thread, including the initial file name assignment and any
* subsequent renaming of the target file.
*
* This interface is designed for file downloads. Generally, they start in the
* temporary directory, while the user is selecting the final name. Then, they
* are moved to the chosen target directory with a ".part" extension appended to
* the file name. Finally, they are renamed when the download is completed.
*
* Components implementing both nsIBackgroundFileSaver and nsIStreamListener
* allow data to be fed using an implementation of OnDataAvailable that never
* blocks the calling thread. They suspend the request that drives the stream
* listener in case too much data is being fed, and resume it when the data has
* been written. Calling OnStopRequest does not necessarily close the target
* file, and the Finish method must be called to complete the operation.
*
* Components implementing both nsIBackgroundFileSaver and nsIAsyncOutputStream
* allow data to be fed directly to the non-blocking output stream, that however
* may return NS_BASE_STREAM_WOULD_BLOCK in case too much data is being fed.
* Closing the output stream does not necessarily close the target file, and the
* Finish method must be called to complete the operation.
*
* @remarks Implementations may require the consumer to always call Finish. If
* the object reference is released without calling Finish, a memory
* leak may occur, and the target file might be kept locked. All
* public methods of the interface may only be called from the main
* thread.
