Detailed Description

Generic byte stream class. Kinda like a void* that you can save and cast later. Work around for c++98 auto keyword and other wonky problems.

               DO NOT USE THIS IMPROPERLY!!

If you don't understand what this does and how it CAN GO HORRIBLY WRONG, DO NOT USE THIS CLASS!

This is used by BIO_SANITIZE_WITH_CACHE and Containers.

NOTE: ByteStreams are not virtual to save what space we can. This may change in a future release if we decide we somehow need more hacky, abstract storage.
