   5  * Strbuf's can be use in many ways: as a byte array, or to store arbitrary
   6  * long, overflow safe strings.
   7  *
   8  * Strbufs has some invariants that are very important to keep in mind:
   9  *
  10  * 1. the ->buf member is always malloc-ed, hence strbuf's can be used to
  11  *    build complex strings/buffers whose final size isn't easily known.
  12  *
  13  *    It is NOT legal to copy the ->buf pointer away.
  14  *    `strbuf_detach' is the operation that detachs a buffer from its shell
  15  *    while keeping the shell valid wrt its invariants.
  16  *
  17  * 2. the ->buf member is a byte array that has at least ->len + 1 bytes
  18  *    allocated. The extra byte is used to store a '\0', allowing the ->buf
  19  *    member to be a valid C-string. Every strbuf function ensure this
  20  *    invariant is preserved.
  21  *
  22  *    Note that it is OK to "play" with the buffer directly if you work it
  23  *    that way:
  24  *
  25  *    strbuf_grow(sb, SOME_SIZE);
  26  *       ... Here, the memory array starting at sb->buf, and of length
  27  *       ... strbuf_avail(sb) is all yours, and you are sure that
  28  *       ... strbuf_avail(sb) is at least SOME_SIZE.
  29  *    strbuf_setlen(sb, sb->len + SOME_OTHER_SIZE);
  30  *
  31  *    Of course, SOME_OTHER_SIZE must be smaller or equal to strbuf_avail(sb).
  32  *
  33  *    Doing so is safe, though if it has to be done in many places, adding the
  34  *    missing API to the strbuf module is the way to go.
  35  *
  36  *    XXX: do _not_ assume that the area that is yours is of size ->alloc - 1
  37  *         even if it's true in the current implementation. Alloc is somehow a
  38  *         "private" member that should not be messed with.
