   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.
