 *  Specialized stream that buffers the first X bytes of a stream,
 *  where X is passed in by the user. Note that unlike some buffered
 *  stream APIs, once more bytes than can fit in the buffer are read,
 *  no more buffering is done. This stream is designed for a use case
 *  where the caller knows that rewind will only be called from within
 *  X bytes (inclusive), and the wrapped stream is not necessarily
 *  able to rewind at all.
