   * Get a ByteBuffer containing file data.

   * or it may come from the ByteBufferFactory which is passed in as an
   * argument.
   *
   * @param factory
   *            If this is non-null, it will be used to create a fallback
   *            ByteBuffer when the stream itself cannot create one.
   * @param maxLength
   *            The maximum length of buffer to return.  We may return a buffer
   *            which is shorter than this.
   * @param opts
   *            Options to use when reading.
   *
   * @return
   *            We will always return an empty buffer if maxLength was 0,
   *            whether or not we are at EOF.
   *            If maxLength > 0, we will return null if the stream has
   *            reached EOF.
   *            Otherwise, we will return a ByteBuffer containing at least one 
   *            byte.  You must free this ByteBuffer when you are done with it 
   *            by calling releaseBuffer on it.  The buffer will continue to be
   *            readable until it is released in this manner.  However, the
   *            input stream's close method may warn about unclosed buffers.
   * @throws
   *            IOException: if there was an error reading.
   *            UnsupportedOperationException: if factory was null, and we
   *            needed an external byte buffer.  UnsupportedOperationException
   *            will never be thrown unless the factory argument is null.
