/**

 *
 * `fstrm_rdwr` is an interface for abstracting the process of reading and
 * writing data to byte streams. It allows extending the `fstrm` library to
 * support reading and writing Frame Streams data to new kinds of byte stream
 * transports. (It also allows building mock interfaces for testing the correct
 * functioning of the library.)
 *
 * `fstrm_rdwr` is a low-level interface that is used in conjunction with the
 * higher level \ref fstrm_reader and \ref fstrm_writer interfaces. The
 * following methods need to be defined for `fstrm_rdwr` implementations:
 *
 * Method name  | Method type                   | Method description
 * ------------ | ----------------------------- | ------------------
 * `destroy`    | #fstrm_rdwr_destroy_func      | Destroys the instance.
 * `open`       | #fstrm_rdwr_open_func         | Opens the stream.
 * `close`      | #fstrm_rdwr_close_func        | Closes the stream.
 * `read`       | #fstrm_rdwr_read_func         | Reads bytes from the stream.
 * `write`      | #fstrm_rdwr_write_func        | Writes bytes to the stream.
 *
 * The `destroy` method is optional. It cleans up any remaining resources
 * associated with the instance.
 *
 * The `open` method is required. It should perform the actual opening of the
 * byte stream and prepare it to read or write data.
 *
 * The `close` method is required. It should perform the actual closing of the
 * byte stream.
 *
 * If the `fstrm_rdwr` object is to be used in an `fstrm_reader` object, it must
 * have a `read` method. If the `fstrm_rdwr` object embedded in an
 * `fstrm_reader` object also has a `write` method, the stream will be
 * considered bi-directional (that is, it supports both reading and writing) and
 * handshaking will be performed. If a `read` method is supplied but a `write`
 * method is not, the reader's stream will instead be considered
 * uni-directional. See \ref fstrm_reader for details.
 *
 * If the `fstrm_rdwr` object is to be used in an `fstrm_writer` object, it must
 * have a `write` method. If the `fstrm_rdwr` object embedded in an
 * `fstrm_writer` object also has a `read` method, the stream will be considered
 * bi-directional and shaking will be performed. If a `write` method is supplied
 * but a `read` method is not, the writer's stream will instead be considered
 * uni-directional. See \ref fstrm_writer for details.
 *
 * An `fstrm_rdwr` instance is created with a call to `fstrm_rdwr_init()`,
 * optionally passing a pointer to some state object associated with the
 * instance. This pointer will be passed as the first argument to each of the
 * methods described above. Then, the various `fstrm_rdwr_set_*()` functions
 * should be used to configure the functions to be used to invoke the methods
 * required for the `fstrm_rdwr` object.
