// This class provides wrapper around fragment of existing buffer (array of bytes). 
// If underlying buffer gets deleted, all BufferFragment objects referencing it become invalid.
// Use toByteArray() to make deep copy of the buffer fragment.
// 
// API is designed to subset of QByteArray methods with some changes:
// - trim() is like QByteArray.trimmed(), but it modifies current object
// - truncateLeft() provides way to cut off beginning of the buffer
// - split() works more like strtok_r than QByteArray.split()
// - truncateLeft() and mid() require position argument to be valid
