This separates the `SharedVtable` into 3:
- `PromotableEvenVtable`: The original `SharedVtable`, which will
promote the `Vec` to `Shared` on the first clone, and is selected when
the `Vec`'s pointer has the LSB unset.
- `PromotableOddVtable`: Similar to the `PromotableEvenVtable`, but
selected when the `Vec`'s pointer has the LSB set. This vtable differs
in the masking used when reconstructing the `Vec`.
- `SharedVtable`: This no longer checks if its current kind is `VEC` or
`ARC`, and is only created by the "promotable" vtables.
This also adds a test using an "odd" global allocator that purposefully
bumps all pointers with alignment of 1.
Closes#343
- The return type of `BufMut::bytes_mut` is now
`&mut [MaybeUninit<u8>]`.
- The argument type of `BufMut::bytes_vectored_mut` is now
`&mut [bytes::buf::IoSliceMut]`.
- `bytes::buf::IoSliceMut` is a `repr(transparent)` wrapper around an
`std::io::IoSliceMut`, but does not expose the inner bytes with a safe
API, since they might be uninitialized.
- `BufMut::bytesMut` and `BufMut::bytes_vectored_mut` are no longer
`unsafe fn`, since the types encapsulate the unsafety instead.
Bytes is a useful tool for managing multiple slices into the same region
of memory, and the other things it used to have been removed to reduce
complexity. The exact strategy for managing the multiple references is
no longer hard-coded, but instead backing by a customizable vtable.
- Removed ability to mutate the underlying memory from the `Bytes` type.
- Removed the "inline" (SBO) mechanism in `Bytes`. The reduces a large
amount of complexity, and improves performance when accessing the
slice of bytes, since a branch is no longer needed to check if the
data is inline.
- Removed `Bytes` knowledge of `BytesMut` (`BytesMut` may grow that
knowledge back at a future point.)
* make Buf and BufMut usable as trait objects
- All the `get_*` and `put_*` methods that take `T: ByteOrder` have
a `where Self: Sized` bound added, so that they are only usable from
sized types. It was impossible to make `Buf` or `BufMut` into trait
objects before, so this change doesn't break anyone.
- Add `get_n_be`/`get_n_le`/`put_n_be`/`put_n_le` methods that can be
used on trait objects.
- Deprecate the export of `ByteOrder` and methods generic on it.
* remove deprecated ByteOrder methods
Removes the `_be` suffix from all methods, implying that the default
people should use is network endian.
