Similar to the previous change to NewObjectInputStreamFromBuffer, we
want to make the ownership transfer out of NewBufferFromStorageStream
more obvious. Doing this also lets us get rid of some uses of
nsAutoArrayPtr, which is less idiomatic than UniquePtr.
Because NewObjectInputStreamFromBuffer takes a raw pointer as input, the
typical coding pattern to use it is:
nsAutoArrayPtr<char> buf;
// assign something to buf
nsresult rv = NewObjectInputStreamFromBuffer(buf, ...);
if (NS_FAILED(rv)) {
...
return rv;
}
buf.forget();
Which is clumsy, error-prone, and obscures the ownership transfer of the
pointer into the stream returned by NewObjectInputStreamFromBuffer.
Let's address all of these concerns by changing the argument to a
UniquePtr<char[]>.
