/**
* Navigable byte buffer for input/output operations.
*
* The byte buffer provides a fluent interface for reading bytes from and writing bytes to some underlying storage
* implementation. The {@code Buffer} type is agnostic about the specific underlying storage implementation, but different
* buffer implementations may be designed for specific storage layers.
*
* Aside from the underlying storage implementation, this buffer works very similarly to Java's {@link java.nio.ByteBuffer}.
* It intentionally exposes methods that can be easily understood by any developer with experience with {@code ByteBuffer}.
*
* In order to support reading and writing from buffers, {@code Buffer} implementations maintain a series of pointers to
* aid in navigating the buffer.
*
* Most notable of these pointers is the {@code position}. When values are written to or read from the buffer, the
* buffer increments its internal {@code position} according to the number of bytes read. This allows users to iterate
* through the bytes in the buffer without maintaining external pointers.
*
*
* {@code
* try (Buffer buffer = DirectBuffer.allocate(1024)) {
* buffer.writeInt(1);
* buffer.flip();
* assert buffer.readInt() == 1;
* }
* }
*
*
* Buffers implement {@link ReferenceCounted} in order to keep track of the number of currently
* held references to a given buffer. When a buffer is constructed, the buffer contains only {@code 1} reference. This
* reference can be released via the {@link Buffer#close()} method which can be called automatically
* by using a try-with-resources statement demonstrated above. Additional references to the buffer should be acquired via
* {@link ReferenceCounted#acquire()} and released via
* {@link ReferenceCounted#release}. Once all references to a buffer have been released - including
* the initial reference - the memory will be freed (for in-memory buffers) and writes will be automatically flushed to
* disk (for persistent buffers).
