Sean McArthurandGitHub 2ac72333fa Change BufMut methods that expose maybe-uninitialized bytes (#305)
- 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.

//! Utilities for working with buffers.
//!
//! A buffer is any structure that contains a sequence of bytes. The bytes may
//! or may not be stored in contiguous memory. This module contains traits used
//! to abstract over buffers as well as utilities for working with buffer types.
//!
//! # `Buf`, `BufMut`
//!
//! These are the two foundational traits for abstractly working with buffers.
//! They can be thought as iterators for byte structures. They offer additional
//! performance over `Iterator` by providing an API optimized for byte slices.
//!
//! See [`Buf`] and [`BufMut`] for more details.
//!
