+// A wrapper around a memory buffer that allows circular read and write with a
+// selectable wrapping position. Buffer layout (after wrap; H is header):
+// -----------------------------------------------------------
+// | H | Beginning           | End           | Middle        |
+// -----------------------------------------------------------
+//  ^---- Non-wrapping -----^ ^--------- Wrapping ----------^
+// The non-wrapping part is never overwritten. The wrapping part will be
+// circular. The very first part is the header (see the BufferData struct
+// below). It consists of the following information:
+// - Length written to the buffer (not including header).
+// - Wrapping position.
+// - End position of buffer. (If the last byte is at x, this will be x + 1.)
+// Users of wrappers around the same underlying buffer must ensure that writing
+// is finished before reading is started.
