/** A dynamic buffer providing buffer sequences of length one.

    A dynamic buffer encapsulates memory storage that may be
    automatically resized as required, where the memory is
    divided into two regions: readable bytes followed by
    writable bytes. These memory regions are internal to
    the dynamic buffer, but direct access to the elements
    is provided to permit them to be efficiently used with
    I/O operations.

    Objects of this type meet the requirements of <em>DynamicBuffer</em>
    and have the following additional properties:

    @li A mutable buffer sequence representing the readable
    bytes is returned by @ref data when `this` is non-const.

    @li A configurable maximum buffer size may be set upon
    construction. Attempts to exceed the buffer size will throw
    `std::length_error`.

    @li Buffer sequences representing the readable and writable
    bytes, returned by @ref data and @ref prepare, will have
    length one.

    Upon construction, a maximum size for the buffer may be
    specified. If this limit is exceeded, the `std::length_error`
    exception will be thrown.

    @note This class is designed for use with algorithms that
    take dynamic buffers as parameters, and are optimized
    for the case where the input sequence or output sequence
    is stored in a single contiguous buffer.
