/// A stream buffer getting data from and putting data into a Python file object
/** The aims are as follow:

    - Given a C++ function acting on a standard stream, e.g.

      \code
      void read_inputs(std::istream& input) {
        ...
        input >> something >> something_else;
      }
      \endcode

      and given a piece of Python code which creates a file-like object,
      to be able to pass this file object to that C++ function, e.g.

      \code
      import gzip
      gzip_file_obj = gzip.GzipFile(...)
      read_inputs(gzip_file_obj)
      \endcode

      and have the standard stream pull data from and put data into the Python
      file object.

    - When Python \c read_inputs() returns, the Python object is able to
      continue reading or writing where the C++ code left off.

    - Operations in C++ on mere files should be competitively fast compared
      to the direct use of \c std::fstream.


    \b Motivation

      - the standard Python library offer of file-like objects (files,
        compressed files and archives, network, ...) is far superior to the
        offer of streams in the C++ standard library and Boost C++ libraries.

      - i/o code involves a fair amount of text processing which is more
        efficiently prototyped in Python but then one may need to rewrite
        a time-critical part in C++, in as seamless a manner as possible.

    \b Usage

    This is 2-step:

      - a trivial wrapper function

        \code
          using boost_adaptbx::python::streambuf;
          void read_inputs_wrapper(streambuf& input)
          {
            streambuf::istream is(input);
            read_inputs(is);
          }

          def("read_inputs", read_inputs_wrapper);
        \endcode

        which has to be written every time one wants a Python binding for
        such a C++ function.

      - the Python side

        \code
          from boost.python import streambuf
          read_inputs(streambuf(python_file_obj=obj, buffer_size=1024))
        \endcode

        \c buffer_size is optional. See also: \c default_buffer_size

  Note: references are to the C++ standard (the numbers between parentheses
  at the end of references are margin markers).
