  // * "data" is not NULL.
  //
  // Postconditions:
  // * If the returned status is not OK, then an error occurred.
  //   All errors are permanent.
  // * Otherwise, the returned value is the actual number of bytes
  //   in the buffer and "data" points to the buffer.
  // * Ownership of this buffer remains with the stream, and the buffer
  //   remains valid only until some other non-const method of the stream
  //   is called or the stream is destroyed.
  // * Any data which the caller stores in this buffer will eventually be
  //   written to the output (unless BackUp() is called).
  // * It is legal for the returned buffer to have zero size, as long
  //   as repeatedly calling Next() eventually yields a buffer with non-zero

  // writing all the data you want to write, but the last buffer was bigger
  // than you needed.  You don't want to write a bunch of garbage after the
  // end of your data, so you use BackUp() to back up.
  //
  // Preconditions:
  // * The last call to Next() must have returned status OK.
  //   If there was no Next()-call yet, or the last one failed,
  //   BackUp()-call is ignored.
  // * count must be less than or equal to the size of the last buffer
  //   returned by Next().  Non-positive count is ignored (no action on this
  //   stream), and count larger than the size of the last buffer is treated
  //   as equal to the size of the last buffer.
  // * The caller must not have written anything to the last "count" bytes
  //   of that buffer.
  //
  // Postconditions:
  // * The last "count" bytes of the last buffer returned by Next() will be
  //   ignored.
  // * Repeated calls to BackUp() accumulate:
  //      BackUp(a);
  //      Backup(b);
  //   is equivalent to

  //

  // * The stream is not closed yet,
  // * The last call to Next() did not return an error.
