/** A <em>Stream</em> with attached <em>DynamicBuffer</em> to buffer reads.

    This wraps a <em>Stream</em> implementation so that calls to write are
    passed through to the underlying stream, while calls to read will
    first consume the input sequence stored in a <em>DynamicBuffer</em> which
    is part of the object.

    The use-case for this class is different than that of the
    `net::buffered_read_stream`. It is designed to facilitate
    the use of `net::read_until`, and to allow buffers
    acquired during detection of handshakes to be made transparently
    available to callers. A hypothetical implementation of the
    buffered version of `net::ssl::stream::async_handshake`
    could make use of this wrapper.

    Uses:

    @li Transparently leave untouched input acquired in calls
      to `net::read_until` behind for subsequent callers.

    @li "Preload" a stream with handshake input data acquired
      from other sources.

    Example:
    @code
    // Process the next HTTP header on the stream,
    // leaving excess bytes behind for the next call.
    //
    template<class Stream, class DynamicBuffer>
    void process_http_message(
        buffered_read_stream<Stream, DynamicBuffer>& stream)
    {
        // Read up to and including the end of the HTTP
        // header, leaving the sequence in the stream's
        // buffer. read_until may read past the end of the
        // headers; the return value will include only the
        // part up to the end of the delimiter.
        //
        std::size_t bytes_transferred =
            net::read_until(
                stream.next_layer(), stream.buffer(), "\r\n\r\n");

        // Use buffers_prefix() to limit the input
        // sequence to only the data up to and including
        // the trailing "\r\n\r\n".
        //
        auto header_buffers = buffers_prefix(
            bytes_transferred, stream.buffer().data());

        ...

        // Discard the portion of the input corresponding
        // to the HTTP headers.
        //
        stream.buffer().consume(bytes_transferred);

        // Everything we read from the stream
        // is part of the content-body.
    }
    @endcode
