In a similar fashion to what have been done with `fill_from_stream`,
this new method allows to write CircularBuffer's data to a Stream
without additional copies.
Previously, if we copied the last byte for a length of 100, we'd
recalculate the read span 100 times and memmove one byte 100 times,
which resulted in a lot of overhead.
Now, if we know that we have two consecutive copies of the data, we just
extend the distance to cover both copies, which halves the number of
times that we recalculate the span and actually call memmove.
This takes the running time of the attached benchmark case from 150ms
down to 15ms.
I was originally thinking in the wrong direction when adding this limit,
we can at most read from the buffer until we reach the current write
head. Since that write head is the reference point for the distance,
we need to limit ourselves to that instead of the seekback limit (which
is the maximum of how far back the distance can be).
Instead of reading bytes from the output stream into a buffer, just to
immediately write them back out, we can skip the middle-man and copy the
bytes directly into the output buffer.
When reading, we currently only fill a BufferedStream's buffer when it
is empty, and only with 1 KB of data. This means that while the buffer
defaults to a size of 16 KB, at least 15 KB is always unused.
This error was introduced by 9a7accdd and had a significant impact on
`BufferedFile` behavior. Hence, we started seeing crash in test262.
By itself, the issue was a wrong calculation of the internal reading
spans when using the `read` and `until` parameters. Which can lead to
at worse crash in VERIFY and at least weird behaviors as missed needles
or detections out of bounds.
It was also accompanied by an erroneous test.
This patch fixes the bug, the test and also provides more tests.
This parameter allows to start searching after an offset. For example,
to resume a search.
It is unfortunately a breaking change in API so this patch also modifies
one user and one test.
The class is very similar to `CircularDuplexStream` in its behavior.
Main differences are that `CircularBuffer`:
- does not inherit from `AK::Stream`
- uses `ErrorOr` for its API
- is heap allocated (and OOM-Safe)
This patch also add some tests.
