# streams: data structure for operating on arrays in a stateful manner
#
# A stream looks like this:
#   write : int  # index at which writes go
#   read : int  # index that we've read until
#   data : (array byte)  # prefixed by length as usual
#
# some primitives for operating on streams:
#   - clear-stream (clears everything but the data length)
#   - rewind-stream (resets read pointer)
