/// A memory buffer that may be uninitialized.
///
/// There are three types that implement the `Buffer` trait, and the type you
/// use determines the return type of the functions that use it:
///
/// | If you pass a…           | You get back a… |
/// | ------------------------ | --------------- |
/// | `&mut [u8]`              | `usize`, indicating the number of elements initialized. |
/// | `&mut [MaybeUninit<u8>]` | `(&mut [u8], &mut [MaybeUninit<u8>])`, holding the initialized and uninitialized subslices. |
/// | [`SpareCapacity`]        | `usize`, indicating the number of elements initialized. And the `Vec` is extended. |
///
/// # Examples
///
/// Passing a `&mut [u8]`:
///
/// ```
/// # use rustix::io::read;
/// # fn example(fd: rustix::fd::BorrowedFd) -> rustix::io::Result<()> {
/// let mut buf = [0_u8; 64];
/// let nread = read(fd, &mut buf)?;
/// // `nread` is the number of bytes read.
/// # Ok(())
/// # }
/// ```
///
/// Passing a `&mut [MaybeUninit<u8>]`:
///
/// ```
/// # use rustix::io::read;
/// # use std::mem::MaybeUninit;
/// # fn example(fd: rustix::fd::BorrowedFd) -> rustix::io::Result<()> {
/// let mut buf = [MaybeUninit::<u8>::uninit(); 64];
/// let (init, uninit) = read(fd, &mut buf)?;
/// // `init` is a `&mut [u8]` with the initialized bytes.
/// // `uninit` is a `&mut [MaybeUninit<u8>]` with the remaining bytes.
/// # Ok(())
/// # }
/// ```
///
/// Passing a [`SpareCapacity`], via the [`spare_capacity`] helper function:
///
/// ```
/// # use rustix::io::read;
/// # use rustix::buffer::spare_capacity;
/// # fn example(fd: rustix::fd::BorrowedFd) -> rustix::io::Result<()> {
/// let mut buf = Vec::with_capacity(64);
/// let nread = read(fd, spare_capacity(&mut buf))?;
/// // `nread` is the number of bytes read.
/// // Also, `buf.len()` is now `nread` elements longer than it was before.
/// # Ok(())
/// # }
/// ```
///
/// # Guide to error messages
///
/// Sometimes code using `Buffer` can encounter non-obvious error messages.
/// Here are some we've encountered, along with ways to fix them.
///
/// If you see errors like
/// "cannot move out of `self` which is behind a mutable reference"
/// and
/// "move occurs because `x` has type `&mut [u8]`, which does not implement the `Copy` trait",
/// replace `x` with `&mut *x`. See `error_buffer_wrapper` in
/// examples/buffer_errors.rs.
///
/// If you see errors like
/// "type annotations needed"
/// and
/// "cannot infer type of the type parameter `Buf` declared on the function `read`",
/// you may need to change a `&mut []` to `&mut [0_u8; 0]`. See
/// `error_empty_slice` in examples/buffer_errors.rs.
///
/// If you see errors like
/// "the trait bound `[MaybeUninit<u8>; 1]: Buffer<u8>` is not satisfied",
/// add a `&mut` to pass the array by reference instead of by value. See
/// `error_array_by_value` in examples/buffer_errors.rs.
///
/// If you see errors like
/// "cannot move out of `x`, a captured variable in an `FnMut` closure",
/// try replacing `x` with `&mut *x`, or, if that doesn't work, try moving a
/// `let` into the closure body. See `error_retry_closure` and
/// `error_retry_indirect_closure` in examples/buffer_errors.rs.
///
/// If you see errors like
/// "captured variable cannot escape `FnMut` closure body",
/// use an explicit loop instead of `retry_on_intr`, assuming you're using
/// that. See `error_retry_closure_uninit` in examples/buffer_errors.rs.
